Ah! Well.. the -S switch is pretty special-purpose (it also waits, for
example), and so not only puts PRIMARY somewhere else.
However, the opposite is not that important, as you can just select the
cut buffer and it becomes the primary selection (the selection is just
that - some selection somewere, while a cut buffer actually stores data in
the x-server), or you can use xcb|xclip or vice versa.

Its very handy, although I have no idea how well it is i18nized...
(probably not very well, but neither is xcb).
