If I remove the -clipboard and the sleep, all is well. As another data point, a longer sleep is needed if the files are run on windows login (which is not surprising). On a different note, I have noticed that the X clipboard will transfer to windows as long as the data is highlighted. Once the data is unhighlighted (i.e. typing "clear") the text is still in the X buffer (middle button or shift insert pastes correctly), but the windows clipboard is empty. - Andy > -----Original Message----- > From: cygwin-xfree-owner@cygwin.com > [mailto:cygwin-xfree-owner@cygwin.com]On Behalf Of Harold L Hunt II > Sent: Thursday, January 08, 2004 10:20 AM > To: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com > Subject: Re: Updated: XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-33 > > > Andrew Braverman wrote: > > > I seem to be the one not to have any luck lately.
