i just know there's a trivial answer to this, but i don't know what it is. i want to, in one operation, copy to the clipboard the *entire* contents of a text file, even though it's so long its full contents can't appear in my X session at the same time. (i can, of course, trivially grab as much as what's visible, but that's not going to work with several hundred lines.) thoughts? thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
