Hi Alex,

 What's wrong with this? This is what seems the most natural way for me
 (in X11, or with GPM in a console window).

There is nothing 'wrong' about it, but it would be nice to be able to
just paste with C-y or C-v like usual. I always forget about it, try to
paste like in Emacs, it doesn't work, then I have to go back and copy
again with tmux or with the mouse and then paste in the REPL.

I like e.g. how the Conkeror browser allows to copypaste from the
keyboard, with the same keybindings like Emacs. So I almost forget that
I'm not in Emacs all the time when doing some copypaste between Emacs
and Conkeror. The same 'feeling' would be nice when changing between
Emacs and the PicoLisp REPL. 

Would that be hard to implement?

Ah, yes, understand.

Not sure. Does anybody know where emacs stores its clipboard? If it is a
file (or accesible via some well-defined mechanism), it would be easy. I
suspect this is not the case (?).
