RE: What happened to xwinclip

["Sterling Baker" <sbaker at mail dot fdn dot com>]

I'm aware of the '-clipboard' option but find that to have undesirable
caveats at times.  I like being able to turn the clipboard integration
on and off as I need.  I looked on about a dozen different mirrors from
the setup program and none of them showed 'xwinclip' as an available
package (if I remember correctly that was an available package some time
back).  I wonder why the stand alone program got dropped.  Guess I'll
just have to do a manual install.

<snip>

Part of the main XWin executable now.  Make sure XWin is invoked
(usually from startxwin.bat or 
startxwin.sh) with -clipboard.  I still show an xwinclip package from
the cygwin package search
tool, though: http://cygwin.com/packages/ (enter xwinclip) but it's not
necessary.
