Re: Xwinclip documentation

[leon dot gierat at orange dot co dot uk]

I haven't been able to get any cross-window clipboard action!

No combination has worked for me, using any of the xwinclip releases, or the
built in clipboard integration :(

This and the refresh issue have been my only problems with the Cygwin/Xfree X
server, whihc has otherwise been excellent (I much prefer it to Exceed, for
example).

Syl,

No special ketstrokes involved.  You just follow whatever mechanism you
use to copy text in Windows and X.  In Windows, this is usually Ctrl+C
to copy and Ctrl+V to paste.  In X, you can usually copy by highlighting
text (it will be immediately unhighlighted, don't ask) with the mouse.
