If you want to copy some text from emacs, and then paste it in another application in X environment, you can have try as add the line below to you .emacs file:
(global-set-key [C-f11] 'clipboard-kill-ring-save) This will add a new bind, here is contrl-f11, to replace the default M-w when copying, then in the other application, the normal paste operation will work. By this method, there are two key-bindings, respectively take charge of the internal-copy-paste affairs and that between eamcs and other applications. I admit that this method is a little ugly, is there anyone who has better solution on this issue?
