I'm trying to get copy and paste working between X applications and
Windows. I'm running Cygwin 1.5.23(0.156/4/2) on Windows XP
Professional. When I run startxwin.sh, the last lines are
winProcSetSelectionOwner - Clipboard not yet started, aborting
winProcSetSelectionOwner - Clipboard not yet started, aborting
If I comment out the line that launches an xterm, these messages go
away. In any event, I can't figure out how to cut and paste between X
and windows applications. I've searched the docs, but don't see
anything about what style of cut and paste I should expect. That is,
is it like X by using the mouse buttons or some other key sequence?
Thanks.
