Maybe Chris should have elaborated a bit: In X11, there are two cut buffers. Only one of them works with cutting and pasting from and to Aqua. Some applications, like xterm, use this one, some, like AbiWord, the other one. The autocutsel utility unifies the two cut buffers. You can see such a behavior sometimes even inside X11, for example on Solaris where you cannot cut&paste between xterm and mailtool (an openwindows application). I've hated this for years. So: Without autocutsel, cut&paste between Aqua and X11 works for some X11 clients, not for others. With autocutsel, it always works (famous last words :-)). -- Martin _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes? SourceForge.net is looking for download mirrors.
