Subject: bug#21196: 24.5; Paste from clipboard to emacs -nw on windows 8.1
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2015 11:42:48 -0400 [thread overview]

This is closed and I understood perfectly, but still, if the purpose
is "consistency" why allow "paste from windows clipboard" but not
"copy to windows clipboard". Obviously this is not what I want, that
the "paste from" is disabled too, but I'm curious. Is there a reason?
:P
Thanks for your time!
