Hi! Sorry for private mail, but I am not sure I can mail to the list.. reading it from news. Just a quick thought.. as you say "it does not use the PRIMARY selection properly", does it use the primary selection at all? I mean, modern X and like the CDE on solaris has two clipboards, one is for CDE, and can be accessed by apps compiled to CDE through the menus edit->copy edit->paste, while the other, in xterms, emacs and so on uses the ancient select with mouse, and paste with middle button.. It is not like Konsole uses the alternative clipboard? Or you are supposed to use it.. Or maybe even you need to select the text, and do a edit->copy to get it to the clipboard? /Andy -- The eye of the beholder rests on the beauty!
