Thank you very much!
The first approach is indeed what is needed in my case.
I will have a look there.

I have been looking through the sources, and my most recent idea was
experimenting with editing /usr/bin/nxagent to run nxagent.bin
with something like "-clipboard no"

I will try the exact approach you are suggesting, though
my bash+awk aren't that good

Many thanks,
Kris
