The selection becoming unhighlighted is the expected, though undesirable behavior of -clipboard. There has been much discussion of this on the list. Just search the mailing list archives for "xwinclip" if you want the full explanation.
No comments on the other bugs. Kensuke will need to look at those.

I am also running Xwin 4.2.0-25 under XP. I do not run another window manager (tried it and realized just how bad it would be). I am running Xwin -multiwindow -clipboard. I am running X all day at work. Though I do not have the overlapping problem at the beginning of my session, it often does show itself at some time during the day. I have also been noticing another problem that have been reported on this list. If I try to run different X apps on different virtual desktops (using MS Virtual Desktop Manager), all X apps just start to blink very quickly and the apps become unusable.I also noticed two other things that I have not seen reported here yet. First, as I bring up an X app (most often xterm), it often reacts as if the enter key is being held down. This will usually stop if I hit enter. The second thing that I have noticed is that in some apps (ddd is the one that I can easily reproduce this in), I can select data by double or triple clicking, but if I try to drag the mouse over words, the selection gets confused and ends up just emptying the clipboard. I have not yet tried this without the -clipboard setting, but I assume that this is the root cause.-----Original Message----- From: Harold L Hunt II [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 06, 2003 12:07 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: overlapping windows [was Re: Some undesirable behaviour in Test77] Peter, Are you saying that you are passing -multiwindow to XWin.exe AND running the window manager multiDesk? If that is the case, then you are doing something that is not intended: you are running two window managers. Obviously, this causes problems. Please explain what you are doing. Harold Peter W.

I like themultiwindow mode, and the integrated clipboard is very nice also.
