code that currently proxies between NSPasteboard and X11 selections
It'd be really nifty if someone integrated this into the xorg-server-1.2-apple branch in git.

more code that proxies between NSPasteboard and X11 selections
... that way, it wouldn't be necessary to run quartz-wm --only-proxy. Problem #1: If you use the Edit/Copy menu once you're stuck using it forever. I've suspected this for years, but now I know why. Search for _proxied_selection. It's set to XA_PRIMARY in x_copy, which prevents x_inactive from ever changing it to anything else. I haven't spent enough time looking at the code to understand the correct approach. Much better in 2.3.2 ... try it! woot! =) |
