Details:
When I use the XBoard menu items File -> Copy Game or File -> Copy Position,
the clipboard seems to stay empty: I cannot paste anything with Ctrl+V in
gedit. When I save the game on a file, load that file in gedit, copy it from
gedit with Ctrl+C, I can use the File -> Paste Game menu to load the game in
XBoard. When I then try to use File -> Copy Position, the game stays in the
clipboard.
It seems like the Copy Game / Position menu items are ompletely ignored. The
temporary file .xboard?????p.pgn seems to be created, though.
Any ideas on this one? I vaguey remember having once seen a complaint
somewhere that XBoard does not respect clipboard conventions, but I forgot
where, and did not know enough about Linux to understand what was written.
H.G.
