Am I missing something, or is it >just the way it is? The X clipboard is quite different from, say, MacOS or MSWindows, no matter what "style" of copy'n'paste you use. For all apps you need to keep the source app open, and for most apps you need to keep the original selection in order for copy'n'paste to work. (OK, there are various patches that work around this.) Did you copy from Evo, close Evo, and then try to paste? (Or from Firefox, close Firefox, then try to paste?) That won't work, you have to leave Evo (Firefox) open. ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
