XFCE terminal binds ctrl-shift-C/V to clipboard copy/paste. They're
not great bindings but they're memorable. Someone mentioned shift-
insert, was that for clipboard or selection paste? Shift-insert
reminds me of DOS edit.exe which used that
3. I really like urxvt(1)s urlLauncher functionality. Copy+Pasting
URLs is a PITA, especially on laptops without a middle mouse button
for pasting. What do you all think about it?
Middle-button paste is (unfortunately) effectively brain-damaged for

Unfortunatelly, many X applications aren't compatible with just UTF8_STRING,
so we'll have to do a little more. The patch below checks COMPOUND_TEXT,
UTF8_STRING and XA_STRING targets. It makes it more complicated and possibly
ugly, but it works...
It would be nice to respond with all three
I know it is possible to configure wmii to open a particular application in a
precise workspace.
In the same idea is it possible to open it always in a new column?

Ah, you have mod4-c run something which copies clipboard to selection?
