# Description
in order to make the charpage for Windows as general as possible, `chcp`
will only run on Windows when `--charpage` is given an integer.

while i was at it, i fixed the system messages given to
`check-clipboard` because some of the were incorrect => see the second
commit 6865ec9a5

# User-Facing Changes
this is a breaking change as users relying on the fact that `std clip`
changed the page to `65001` by itself is not true anymore => they will
have to add `--charpage 65001`.

Welcome to the standard library of `nushell`!

The standard library is a pure-nushell collection of custom commands which provide interactive utilities and building blocks for users writing casual scripts or complex applications.

To see what's here:

🧰 Using the standard library in the REPL or in scripts

All commands in the standard library must be "imported" into the running environment (the interactive read-execute-print-loop (REPL) or a .nu script) using the use command.

You can choose to import the whole module, but then must refer to individual commands with a std prefix, e.g:

use std

std log debug "Running now"
std assert (1 == 2)

Or you can enumerate the specific commands you want to import and invoke them without the std prefix.

use std ["log debug" assert]

log debug "Running again"
assert (2 == 1)

This is probably the form of import you'll want to add to your env.nu for interactive use.
