Hi John,

I will not send you further personal email.
What i really meant was that i read in one of your announcements about
clipboard integration not fully working with the 64bit X server.
The reason why i came up with xwinclip is that i was under the (possibly
wrong) impression that xwinclip reappeared as a consequence of this
clipboard integration deficiency.
So the real question is: Is it true that clipboard integration is not
fully working with the 64bit X server and if so will this change in the
foreseeable future?

Thanks and best regards

Franz
