To the best of my knowledge, there is more than one way that copying
and pasting is handled, in X. I believe highlighting and clicking
with the middle button (wheel) is more universal. Using an
application's copy function seems to be somewhat limitted, as far as
support by other applications. Whenever I have trouble, I try the
highlight/middle click route, and it seems to work...
If anyone could shed more light on how copying and pasting are
handled, and possibly even include a link, I'd appreciate it. I'd
like to *know*, not just recall hearing from others... :)
