Subject: xclipping too many long lines freaks emacs out
Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2002 07:01:29 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E17rRLV-0000b8-00@debian> (raw)

Package: xclip
Version: 0.08-1
Severity: minor

As root I did sed 56q syslog|xclip
this apparently creates too many wide lines to yank back with
Shift-Insert in a normal window.  What's worse,
then as me in emacs I did C-y expecting to yank it back.
I get 'Memory exhausted' messages and then a C-g causes some kind of
emacs blinking state which only a killall -1 emacs could put it out of
its misery.  I think this is a 'many wide lines into xclip' problem,
not a root/user problem, but i didnt check further.

emacs-version"21.2.1"
