If I copy data in the clipboard, then I close the application, then I

clipboard...?
this is normal in x - copy & paste is a transaction between 2 clients. "copy"
or "cut" simply has the source app own the selection - it says it owns it. when
you paste the target app you paste in then requests the data from the source
app (they negotiate a common format) then the data is transferred. if the
original app is gone - this transaction cannot take place as the selection
owner is gone and no negotiation and transfer can happen.n this has been x11
selections (and wayland too) ever since day 0.
you could try a clipboard manager that basically pasts to itself whenever it
sees a new selection owner and then stores this... and it becomes the
selection owner...
Thank you very much for the explanation.
So I have tried diodon, but it does not work. Do someone use a clipboard
manager and can someone suggest me one...?
As a more general problem, is there a page giving a list of recommended
program tested to be well working with e....?
I see the problem on another thread, a user wants to install e, but
she needs too xorg. Sure it is normal. And she needs too to start dbus,
it is dbus-x11 in debian... It is not simple nor basic to know that all
this is necessary...
