Hi all,
Does anybody have a suggestion for this situation:
User reported that he was able to cut/paste from Windows to XEmacs, but unable to cut/paste in the opposite direction from XEmacs to Windows.
I verified the problem with the following notes: pasted to other X windows

The problem appears specific to copying from XEmacs. Text copied from other X windows behaves as expected.
Thanks, Nick
Hi Nick,
(Sorry about this duplicate email. I forgot to CC the list on the last one.)
I was unable to reproduce your bug on this setup:
- Fedora 19 64-bit with XEmacs 21.5.34, x2goserver 4.0.1.6 & nx-libs 3.5.0.21
- Windows 8.1 64-bit with x2goclient 4.0.1.2pre02 (see the X2go-Dev email discussion on 4.0.1.2pre01 for more info on this build)
Can you please tell us what Linux distro you are running XEmacs (and the x2go server) on? See my reasoning below.
However, I have this same problem with NEdit, which uses OpenMotif as its graphical toolkit. And I just reproduced this issue with NEdit from my windows client detailed above. I've observed it on x2goclient 4.0.0.3 on Windows 7 64-bit also. I've observed it on Fedora 19, (details listed above) CentOS 6, RHEL 6 and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. XEmacs appears to support multiple toolkits according to this link. http://www.us.xemacs.org/Download/optLibs.html Perhaps this bug only occurs when XEmacs is using OpenMotif? I need to investigate this further, but I'm thinking that XEmacs uses OpenMotif on your distro, but it uses another toolkit on Fedora 19.
