clip-query ...............: clip-mode on/off and query interval

Clip-Mode
If clip-query >0, clip-mode is automaticly switched on
and the text in TextFile.txt will be ignored.
Additional clip-query sets the interval in msec for
checking the clipboard.
If WheelText recognized a new text in the clipboard,
it will be shown instead of TextFile.txt.

If WheelText should not show every text from the clip,
it is possible so define a mark which must be available
in the beginning of the clipboard.

Example:
clip-identmark=XY>
Clipboard includes "XY>Hello"
then WheelText will show the text "Hello"
