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.

NAME
wxpaste - output a cutbuffer to stdout SYNOPSIS
wxpaste [options] DESCRIPTION
wxpaste outputs the contents of the specified cutbuffer to stdout. If no cutbuffer is specified, the cutbuffer 0 will be used as default. OPTIONS
-cutbuffer number The data will be pasted from the specified cutbuffer, instead of the default 0. -display display-name Specifies the display where wxpaste should look for the data to be pasted. -selection [selection-name] The data will be copied from the named selection. If cutting from the selection fails, the cutbuffer will be used. The default value for the selection name is PRIMARY. BUGS
The -selection option must be the last one. The syntax could be cleaned, but backwards compatibility prevents that... INCR and MULTIPLE selection types are not handled. Actually, only simple text selections are handled, wich should be enough for most uses of a utility such as this. SEE ALSO
