I'm using XWin.exe 6.7-4 (binary package installed via Cygwin's Setup) on Win 2k Server, service pack 4.
When running Cygwin/X with the -clipboard option, I can cut and paste between X apps, and from X to Windows apps. As long as X is running, I am not able to cut or copy from Windows apps. For example, if I type "foo" in X and copy it to the clipboard, whenever I paste in X or in Windows I get "foo". If I then type "bar" in Windows, select it, and hit CTRL-C or choose "Copy" from an Edit menu via mouse, whenever I paste in X or in Windows I get "foo" rather than "bar". When I shut X down I regain the ability to cut/copy in Windows. When I use xwinclip instead of the -clipboard option, I am able to transfer data into and out of the clipboard in X and Windows with no problems. I am not using both xwinclip and -clipboard simultaneously. I was not able to find any mention of this particular clipboard problem on Google or in the cygwin-xfree archives. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
