wxcopy - copy stdin or file into X11 cutbuffer
Contents
Description
wxcopy copies stdin or filename into the cutbuffer. If no cutbuffer is specified, the data will be copied
into cutbuffer 0 and the other cutbuffers will be rotated, if present. If a cutbuffer is specified, the
data is copied into that cutbuffer, and no rotation of buffers is performed.
Name
wxcopy - copy stdin or file into X11 cutbuffer
Options
--clear-selection
Clears the PRIMARY selection owner. In practice it means that when you try to paste the data with
the middle mouse button (for example) it will paste the data from cut buffer 0, instead of any
eventually existing mouse selection.
--cutbuffernumber
Specifies the number of the cutbuffer to copy data to.
-display display-name
The data will be copied in the cutbuffers of the specified display/screen.
--help print a help message with the list of options.
--no-limit
Makes the normal 64kb limit check not to be performed, making the buffer attempt to grow to
whatever size is required.
--version
print the version of Window Maker from which the program comes.
