$HOME/bin
Hi all, I was wondering why there's no $HOME/bin directory and $HOME/bin not mentioned in the $PATH variable. Any particular reason not to have that by default?

Re: Clipboard manager by default in Fedora 12

It's basically a program every system should have (in my opinion). The Gnome clipboard isn't working great. I often get complaints from new users I introduce to Fedora that their clipboard content was lost when they closed Firefox, or something similar. And it's true, I don't trust the default Gnome Copy&Paste to keep anything in it when I'm not running a clipboard manager and don't close any apps "just in case". It would be really nice to have a clipboard manager by default on the Live CD (GNOME and XFCE, KDE already has klipper). When I look in the repos for available clipboard managers, I see glipper, parcellite and the XFCE plugin (xfce4-clipman-plugin). glipper is 111 k, and parcellite is 114, so it shouldn't be a difference of size. I personally would recommend parcellite, because it's pretty lightweight and works good (and I use it myself :D). What do you think about that? I think this would improve the user experience and add functionality to the desktop. I get the feeling you haven't pushed the GNOME clipboard in awhile. Its perfectly fine. The Firefox issue was always Firefox's fault. Its designed to keep information from leaking out of the browser. --CJD Hi all, that's interesting, I have a question about the standard clipboard. Highlighting some text in an app, may it be firefox, thunderbird, tomboy, whatever and then pasting it to an existing xterm with middle mouse button works. However if you open a new xterm _after_ you highlighted some text the previously highlighted text is not being pasted to the new xterm. There might be some some security concerns I might not be thinking of but it's not the behavior I would expect from a user perspective. What's actually going on there?

thunderbird is removing spaces
Hi, thunderbird seem to remove spaces from lines that only consist of one or more spaces. Any way of preventing thunderbird from doing so? I already have "mailnews.send_plaintext_flowed false" and turned of line wrapping. With these option sending patches works pretty well, only recently I had a patch that got corrupted because of spaces being removed. Any ideas?
