The clipboard code has been released in the new 'curr' version of
XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-39.
There are some minor issues that will need to be fixed eventually,
particularly concerning bugs with server resets. Though, there are
other bugs in the non-Cygwin specific code for handling resets that will
need to be fixed as well in order for resets to start working reliably.
To use the new clipboard code, do the following:
1) Edit your startup script (startxwin.bat, startxdmcp.bat, or
startxwin.sh).
2) Remove any launching of 'xhost', unless you specifically know that
you need it.
3) Remove any launching of 'xwinclip'; xwinclip provides similar
functionality to the '-clipboard' integrated clipboard client.
4) Add the '-clipboard' command-line parameter to the line that launches
XWin.exe. For example, change 'XWin -multiwindow' to 'XWin -multiwindow
-clipboard'.
5) The integrated clipboard client will work with local applications,
ssh tunneled applications, and Xdmcp sessions without any special
configuration or startup-file hacks.
