Is there a Windows clipboard manager that doesn't clash with -clipboard parameter?

Is there a Windows clipboard manager that doesn't clash with -clipboard parameter?

[Alister Hood]

Hi,

I've found that -clipboard clashes with Windows clipboard history
managers such as Ditto.  Does anybody know of a clipboard manager with
which it does work?

If I run glipper in a linux panel in Colinux, then I can use that, and I
imagine I could compile them for Cygwin instead, but the panel is
handled as a window (I'm using -multiwindow), and I'd rather use a
native Windows clipboard manager anyway, so I can only start X when I
need to.

Thanks,
Alister

Are you using the very latest X-Org server?  I was having bad problems 
with VNC, but they've since disappeared with the latest X release.

Hi,
	I had problems with all the clipboard managers I tried (4 or 5), until 
I upgraded my X-Org Server about 10 days ago.
Now most problems are solved.

Ciao,

Since xorg-server 1.6.0, we've reverted an upstream patch [1], which was 
causing the built-in clipboard synchronization client to fight with other 
clipboard monitoring applications.

Looking at the other responses, it seems like this has had the desired effect :-)

I have had awful troubles using XWin with -clipboard.  I don't think
I am doing anything odd with the XP clipboard AFAIK.  Using -clipboard
crashes various applications (tgif) and gives performance issues in 
others (LyX)

I tried a re-install for xwin but it seems to give me the version 
from February, 1.5.3.0 (20090222)

Looking at the package list for cygwin, it appears the xwin package
is obsolete?  

What am I doing wrong?

The 'xorg-server' package, which contains 'XWin.exe', is not obsolete.
The current version is 1.5.3, package revision #5.  See here ->
<http://cygwin.com/packages/xorg-server/xorg-server-1.5.3-5>

Ah, good.
Since that isn't showing in the cygwin installer I guess I need to
install the beta cygwin to get it?

Thanks.

Yes, you need to install 1.7 ( http://www.cygwin.com/setup-1.7.exe ).

To tell all the truth I was sticking to 1.5 and try to wait as much as 
was possible before passing to 1.7 (I feared possible problems/troubles 
in installation and reconfiguration/tweak to my needs), the reason I 
switched to 1.7 was, in fact, to try the improvements in the clipboard 
handling in X.org 1.6.0.

I must tell I'm satisfied with it: after installing 1.7 and configuring 
it a bit, I never used 1.5 anymore.
