Hi Ed You can access the Windows clipboard under Cygwin. I ran R within Cygwin. I was able to use read.table (file="clipboard") for both plain text and Excel tables. > #table copied from excel > tbl = read.table (file="clipboard", TRUE) > tbl A B C D 1 1 5 9 13 2 2 6 10 14 3 3 7 11 15 4 4 8 12 16 Note that when copying plain text you may need to include a final newline character. The X11() message is suspicious. I'm wondering what type of object you're trying to copy...?
