Hi, I found it quite annoying that xwinclip-test6 was grabbing the ownership of the selection every-time it looses it while IMHO it should just grab it when there is a new selection in the MS-Windows clipboard. Grabbing means the original application is loosing it and with xterm and xemacs it means that the selection is really lost, dehighlighted and not available anymore.
So I did some googling how to detect clipboard changes on MS-Windows and added the code for this to wndproc.c and modified xevents.c to just grab the selection if a MS-Windows clipboard change is detected which is not caused by xwinclip itself (this part is really a hack). The code might be helpful for those working on improved xwinclip versions, but I do not have any intention on more hacking. I actually have no idea about MS-Windows API and X11 so there are probably new bugs ... http://www.robf.de/Hacking/xwinclip-test7.tgz Bye Robert PS: I have not subscribed to this list so you should address questions with a CC to me.
