wxcopy(1x)                                                                                                                              wxcopy(1x)

NAME

       wxcopy - copy stdin or file into cutbuffer

SYNOPSIS

       wxcopy [options] [filename]

DESCRIPTION

       wxcopy  copies  stdin  or filename into the cutbuffer. If no cutbuffer is specified, the data will be copied into cutbuffer 0 and the other
       cutbuffers will be rotated, if present.  If a cutbuffer is specified, the data is copied into that cutbuffer, and no rotation of buffers is
       performed.

OPTIONS

       -cutbuffer number
              Specifies the number of the cutbuffer to copy data to.

       -display display-name
              The data will be copied in the cutbuffers of the specified display/screen.

       -nolimit
              Makes the normal 64kb limit check not to be performed, making the buffer attempt to grow to whatever size is required.

       -clearselection
              Clears the PRIMARY selection owner. In practice it means that when you try to paste the data with the middle mouse button (for exam-
              ple) it will paste the data from cut buffer 0, instead of any eventually existing mouse selection.
