I don't believe this has been answered.  First off, you can paste using
the middle mouse button.  If you have a two-button mouse, you can use the
-emulate3buttons flag to XWin (it might even be the default), and then
press the left and right buttons simultaneously.  Finally, if you want the
Windows clipboard, then ':!cat /dev/clipboard' works fine from within vim.

white windows

2007-12-02 Thread Jon Sjöstedt
Hello!

I just installed Cygwin and it seems to work fine with one exception: All
X-application windows get all white. If I run startxwin.bat I get a white
window (but decoration is ok). If I type something in the window I still
cant see anything. If I type xtermenter I get a new completly white
window.

The system would be a bit more useful with more colors. Any ideas?
