ctrl-C is a windows copy command. in the unix world, it's often an abort stroke.
the console clipboard and the X clipboard are indeed 2 different things. when i start X, i redirect stderr to stdout, and tee it to a logfile. your best bet is to dump the console contents you want into a file, and then read that file in X. -Adam >> (07.13.2002 @ 1329 PST): Jud said, in 0.6K: << > Have you tried ctrl-C? > > Jud > > > 7/13/2002 4:17:12 PM, Warren Block <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >Maybe this is easy, but I haven't found any references (pointers > >appreciated).
