Subject: clipboard cut/paste problem
Date: 1 May 2005 17:59:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1114995583.410098.124540@z14g2000cwz.googlegroups.com> (raw)

I'm having a problem getting emacs (21.4.1 under Linux) to import text
from other applications via cut/paste.  I have the following in my
.emacs:

(setq-default x-select-enable-clipboard t)
(setq interprogram-paste-function 'x-cut-buffer-or-selection-value)

Pasting (e.g., with yank) from other programs via the clipboard works
fine *until* I cut something to the clipboard from within emacs (e.g.,
with kill-line).  From then on, emacs only pastes from its own cut
buffer, not from the clipboard.

Any suggestions?
