It seems as if it's just mozilla's problem, but I'm rather astonished that it can't even deal with latin-1 characters. Has anyone out there successfully used Mozilla to cut/paste non-ASCII text? Also, does anyone know of any low-level tools that cat be used to directly send/receive binary data to/from the X cut buffer mechanism, so I can reduce the variables to one program?
