Subject: mouse does not copy text to clipboard in Emacs
Date: Fri, 30 Aug 2013 07:07:02 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <506e954e-1463-4173-a98c-1a81f5ec1803@googlegroups.com> (raw)

Hi

I found that Emacs 24 no longer uses X11 clipboard by default but X11 selection
when highlighting text with a mouse.

The mouse highlighted text shows in:
xclip -o -selection primary
and not in
xclip -o -selection clipboard

I have the following line in ~/.emacs:
(setq x-select-enable-clipboard t)

Please help me to set up emacs to use X11 clipboard by default.

Thanks in advance.
