  Using the  mouse  also works fine from copy'n'pasting arbitrary
Unicode strings from OO to Yudit.

  I wouldn't say it's  wrong, but rather in a different
representation. Apparently, when asked for 'STRING' and 'COMPOUND_TEXT'
target,  yudit uses '\uxxxx' representation of Unicode character U+xxxx
not representable in STRING and COMPOUND_TEXT.  What's reprsentable in
STRING and what's not is very clear. Anything beyound U+00FF(Latin-1
repertoire) is not representable in STRING. As for COMPOUND TEXT,
I'm not sure.

  xterm 16x <-> openoffice, xterm 16x <-> yudit and Mozilla
<-> (xterm 16x, yudit) work very well for a paragraph of Cyrillic
alphabets, Greek alphabets, CJK Ideographs(not covered by a single legacy
character set), Hangul syllables, Hangul Jamos.  xterm 16x, yudit and
Mozilla are all known to support UTF8_STRING.  However, Mozilla <->OO
works in some cases but not always.

  Given all these, it's not clear whether or not OO supports
UTF8_STRING. Because even if it does not, I think COMPOUND_TEXT can be
used to exchange arbitrary Unicode strings using 'ESC %G' representing
the beginning of UTF8 and that's what may be used between xterm-16x and
OO and Mozilla <-> OO.  I may be wrong. I have to dig up the compound
text spec. to be sure.

  I wanted to search OO bug DB, but I need to be approved for a membership
in L10N(for both L10N and I18N) project before even browsing existing
bugs, let alone reporting a new one.
