How can I use the selections of xterm in my own program ? I first thought I can do that by using the CUT_BUFFER0, since the selected string of xterm is available there. But I can only read the string. When I store my own string in that buffer, xterm seems to change its storing method in the next selection. Afterwards, the selection of xterm is still stored in the cut-buffer, but somewhere else too, since I can change the cut-buffer without affect to the selection. Where is the selected string stored ? What is the easiest way to find and change it ? -- Helmut Hoenig hoenig@informatik.uni-kl.de
