Something like this (Note: Little Programs do little to no error checking):

#include <stdio.h>
#include <Windows.h>

int main()
{
    UINT format = 0;
    OpenClipboard(0);
    do
    {
        format = EnumClipboardFormats(format);
        printf("%d\n", format);
    } while (format);
    CloseClipboard();
}

Unicode text is format 13. ANSI text is format 1. OEM text is format
7. Formats are enumerated in decreasing order of preference, i.e. most
faithful representation first.
