Clipboard viewer for programming purposes

I need a clipboard viewer in order to understand the type and contents of the data I'm receiving. Is there any such program available, (for Windows) that lets you explore any type of data currently in the clipboard?

ClipSpy: Unfortunately the only workable multi-format viewer, ClipSpy, shows me the string data wrapped every 10 characters, and expands the hex and binary views which I'm not concerned about.

I would use the command-line clipboard tool to send the clipboard contents to a file. Then you view/parse it using any old tool.

I use Ditto which uses an SQL lite database. I am sure you could figure out a way to manipulate the stored data for syntax highlighting or modify the program so that when editing clips it would open with syntax highlighting or in an editor that has it.
