Copy Paste to Windows

Copy Paste to Windows

[dvos]

Hello .
I've read about uzing clipboard  for copy paste and edited my startxwin.bat to 

start XWin -multiwindow -clipboard 

Yet I  cannot copy  . I use the last version of XFree , I ran the cygwin Instalaiton today ,from the web.

Maybe I don't know how do I actually copy/paste .  Do I use CTRL+C or CTRL+V when I copy to Windows and 
middle mouse when I copy to cygwin ?

Several mirrors are between 6 months and 3 months out of date.

Please run "cygcheck -c XFree86-xserv".  If the version reported is not 
"4.3.0-40", then you installed from an out of date mirror and you need 
to use a different mirror.

You copy text to the clipboard in Win32 with Ctrl+C.  You then paste 
that in X11 with either a middle mouse button click or via a menu in the 
current application (if it has a Paste menu item).

You copy text in X11 by highlighting it and, optionally, clicking the 
Copy button in a menu (if the application has a Copy menu item).  Leave 
the text highlighted just to be sure.  To paste that text in Win32, 
press Ctrl+V.

Try this first with Notepad and an xterm.

If you still do not succeed, send in /tmp/XWin.log from a failed attempt.

Yes , that is the way I do it . The clipboard remembers  CTRL+C for Windows and copies it to Windows only .
And at the same time copies to cygwin the last higlihted  line in cygwin only.
I left the line highlighted.

Also , if it is important I run Cygwin from the  batch file , which  is :
###############################################
@echo off

D:
chdir D:\cygwinNEW\bin

bash --login -c "/usr/X11R6/bin/Xwin -query HOSTNAME "

You have to change that batch file:

 > @echo off
 >
 > D:
 > chdir D:\cygwinNEW\bin
 >
 > bash --login -c "/usr/X11R6/bin/Xwin -query HOSTNAME "
 > ###############################################

Change it to:

###############################################
@echo off

D:
chdir D:\cygwinNEW\bin

bash --login -c "/usr/X11R6/bin/Xwin -clipboard -query HOSTNAME "
###############################################

Re: Copy Paste to Windows

[B. Marchand]

Yes, your problem must be the version of the xserver. If you had the 
right version all
you'd have to do would be:

To copy from cygwin to Windows
(1) use the mouse to select (highlight) the text you want to copy
(2) the highlighted text is now on the clipboard
(3) if you want to paste that selection into word or notepad then use 
CTRL-V on the windows side


To copy from Windows to cygwin
(1) use the mouse to select (highlight) the text you want to copy
(2) press CTRL-C to copy seletion into clipboard
(3) go into your xterm and press the middle mouse button to paste. If 
you don't have a
3 button mouse use the -emulate3buttons option in the startxwin.bat 
file. Then, to paste, all you'd have to do is press the two mouse 
buttons simultaneously.

To copy from cygwin to cygwin
(1) use the mouse to select (highlight) the text you want to copy
(2) that puts the selection into the clipboard
(3) place the cursor where you want to paste the text
(4) press the middle mouse button (or the two mouse buttons 
simultaneously if using the -emulate3buttons option)

That's all.
