When trying to cut text from a terminal or another

But when I start a firefox on the host system,
cut text from a terminal or another text-based
application and paste that into the URL-field
of the firefox on the host sustem, then cut
it from there and paste it into the firefox
on the viryalized Linux...it works.
Looks a little weird to me...
Is that an error, which fails to fail completly
or is a half working feature (or do I fail
in both cases ... ;) ?
Similar things happen with VMware. It seems that many applications do
not set the clipboard contents in a way that VB or VMw can recognize.
Never found a solution to this myself.
