Making a selection in a program is a user interaction. It is not as though some other program that I don't interract with steals the selection. So about 1% of all my C-y in Emacs yanks the selection from another program. But that is because I expect it to, I did a selection in another program before C-y. If I interract with another program before I change to Emacs and do C-y, I'd say close to 100%. Jan D.
