Hi Joe, good to see you again.

Which Emacs version and operating system are you using (specifically
which Unix?)?

I used Emacs 23 from CVS, updated weekly (except this week!), and I have
no problems whatsoever copying between Emacs and xterm or Firefox, with
no tweaking of clipboard variables.  Can anyone comment on this?

Perhaps you should upgrade.

Thanks,
Joel
