NAME
wxcopy - copy stdin or file into cutbuffer SYNOPSIS
wxcopy [options] [filename] DESCRIPTION
wxcopy copies stdin or filename into the cutbuffer. If no cutbuffer is specified, the data will be copied into cutbuffer 0 and the other cutbuffers will be rotated, if present. If a cutbuffer is specified, the data is copied into that cutbuffer, and no rotation of buffers is performed. OPTIONS
-cutbuffer number Specifies the number of the cutbuffer to copy data to. -display display-name The data will be copied in the cutbuffers of the specified display/screen. -nolimit Makes the normal 64kb limit check not to be performed, making the buffer attempt to grow to whatever size is required. -clearselection Clears the PRIMARY selection owner. In practice it means that when you try to paste the data with the middle mouse button (for exam- ple) it will paste the data from cut buffer 0, instead of any eventually existing mouse selection.

NAME
autocutsel - keep the X clipboard and the cutbuffer in sync SYNOPSIS
autocutsel [-selection selection_name] [-cutbuffer number] [-debug] [-verbose] [-fork] [-pause milliseconds] [-buttonup] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the autocutsel command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. autocutsel tracks changes in the server's cutbuffer and clipboard selection. When the clipboard is changed, it updates the cutbuffer. When the cutbuffer is changed, it owns the clipboard selection. The cutbuffer and clipboard selection are always synchronized. Since the VNC client synchronizes the Windows' clipboard and the server's cutbuffer, all three "clipboards" are always kept synchronized. When you copy some text in Windows, the cutbuffer and the clipboard selection are updated. When you copy text on the server using either the cut- buffer or the clipboard selection, the Windows's clipboard is always updated. OPTIONS
-selection, -select, -sel, -s {CLIPBOARD|PRIMARY} Specify which selection to use. Default is CLIPBOARD. -cutbuffer <number> (Details of this parameter unknown.) -debug, -d Run with debugging mode. -verbose, -v Be more verbose. Reports the version and announces synchronizations. -fork, -f Run as a daemon program in the background. This is recommended when used from an X startup script. -pause, -p <milliseconds> Wait some milliseconds before owning the selection. -buttonup Get the selection only when the button 1 is not pressed. This may help with OpenOffice Writer. AUTHOR
