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.
