mouse-sel-mode prevents clipboard from working on windows

[Stefan Daschek]

I'm using "GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.0.2195) of 2002-03-19 on
buffy" on ms windows 2000.

After activating mouse-sel-mode I can no longer paste text copied from
other applications into emacs.

Steps to reproduce:

* emacs --no-site-file -q
* select and copy some text in any other application
* paste it into emacs -> works
* M-x mouse-sel-mode
* select and copy some more text from any other application
* try to paste it into emacs -> does not work (instead, the same text
  is inserted as for the first paste).

I have found the following workaround:

(let ((paste interprogram-paste-function)
      (cut   interprogram-cut-function))
     (mouse-sel-mode)
     (setq interprogram-paste-function paste
           interprogram-cut-function   cut)))

However I think that this is a bug that should be fixed in
mouse-sel-mode.el.


sincerely,
stefan
