Get-Clipboard of Powershell : '-Raw' option?

Question

From microsoft document manual, I found an option for 'Get-Clipboard' of PowerShell.
The option is '-Raw' :

-Raw : Gets the entire contents of the clipboard. Multiline text is returned as a single multiline string rather than an array of strings.

But I couldn't find any difference for adding '-Raw.
For example,

powershell.exe "Get-Clipboard -Format text " > MyText.txt

and

powershell.exe "Get-Clipboard -Format text -Raw" > MyText.txt

gives the same results. (Regardless of the content of the clipboard) Can you give me an example such that the use of '-Raw' option makes something different ?

Answer 1

$tempfile = New-TemporaryFile

@'
some 
different lines 
of text
'@ | Set-Content $tempfile

Get-Content $tempfile | Set-Clipboard

$text = Get-Clipboard

$text.count

3

$text = Get-Clipboard -Raw

$text.Count

1

As it said it is a single string, rather than an array of strings.

Here is one example of the many times it matters.

$text = Get-Clipboard

$text -match 'different'

different lines

$text = Get-Clipboard -Raw

$text -match 'different'

true
