One more salvo on X and cut/paste. X specifies at least two *mechanisms*
|
|
for cut/paste, but as usual mandates no *policy*. Windows and Macintosh
|
|
have a slightly different mechanism and one uniform policy. I'm quite
|
|
sure that Tk implements all PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD selections accurately.
|
|
The PRIMARY selection is the one that is tied to the visible selection
|
|
on your X display. The CLIPBOARD selection is the one with the explicit
|
|
Copy step, and is the same as what you have on Windows and Macintosh.
|
|
However, exmh throws in support for the cutbuffer mechanism, which is
|
|
another archaic mechanism supported at one point (perhaps still today)
|
|
by versions of emacs. Exmh has a policy that tries to unify all these
|
|
mechanisms under one umbrella, and by all reports it is not that great.
|
|
|
|
I would encourage folks to play with those 10 lines of code in
|
|
Text_Selection and report what works well for them. We may come up
|
|
with 8 lines that work for everyone, or perhaps introduce yet another
|
|
setting that lets folks choose between a few useful models. Of course,
|
|
that's an admission of policy failure, but I'm willing to do that.
