There is an application called xcutsel that comes with XFree86 (i.e. you should already have it). It lets you copy from X to Aqua and vice versa. There's also the autocutsel package, which does the same thing, but is automatic.

Can anyone recommend the best way to copy text outputted from unix commands running under XDarwin in Xterm, using the mouse? I understand that any unix command can have its output practically piped to a buffer, but it would be nice to be able to select and copy for copy-and-paste capabilities (maybe I'm too spoiled by Aqua / OS X)? Ideally it would be nice to be able to copy and paste (bidirectionally) between Aqua and any app with a GUI running under XDarwin. I ask because I fink installed the SVG editor sodipodi and it ran successfully but listed several warnings in the xterm window from where I spawned it, and I wanted to quickly copy the text it output and bring it over to Aqua into BBEdit. Thanks for any suggestions (note: am not too keen yet on using X11 from Apple as I'd prefer to stick with XDarwin). -Brendan ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing & more.
