Re: Clipboard interaction issues - breaks after awhile
Thanks so much for getting back to me, Jon. nxterm is Nem's Xterm - I've just recompiled xterm with some minor configuration differences. I backed out to 1.15.1-4 and rebooted and since then I have *not* had the issue, so I'm wondering if the reboot is needed for some reason. I'll be upgrading to 1.16.0-2 today and will reboot and test. Like you mention, I assume its one of my *Windows* apps that is really the cause of the issue. Not sure which one, though, if that's the case. If it comes back up again, I'll shoot out another note to the list.
