I deleted the original post from someone who asked about the existence of such a utility. Anyway, I have always wished I had such a utility myself so I determined to write one. I used Qt to write it since I'm not versed in low-level X programming. I'm including the code and will send a binary to anyone who doesn't want to compile it themselves (and who wants a glibc2/qt1.42 version). The compile command is in the comments. You'll need to run this before the compile command: moc read2clip.cpp > meta-code.cpp Cheers, -- Jens B. Jorgensen jjorgens@bdsinc.com
