The document of fltk-1.3.x said(some keywords were capitalized):
"Copies the data pointed to by stuff to the SELECTION (0) or PRIMARY (1)
clipboard.

The SELECTION CLIPBOARD is used for middle-mouse pastes and for
drag-and-drop selections. The PRIMARY CLIPBOARD is used for traditional
copy/cut/paste operations."
So,
0->selection clipboard: middle-mouse(or highlight) copy/paste + DND  
1->primary clipboard: ^c/^v copy/paste

The "selection clipboard" and "primary clipboard" are confusing. Who are
they? "PRIMARY selection","CLIPBOARD" or mixing of both? 

I think that "selection clipboard" here should be replaced with "PRIMARY
selection" and "primary clipboard" should be replaced with "CLIPBOARD".

PRIMARY selection is used for DnD and hilighted text.
CLIPBOARD is used for regular ^c/^v.
