Initial Comment:
Hi,

I have been using rdesktop for a long time and want to say
Thank You for such great software.

But I do want something more.  Copy and paste.  I see
in the source for 1.3.1 that I recently downloaded a
bunch of code that looks like
copy and past code, but I can't seem to find out how to
use it.

In my X windows, I hold the left mouse button and drag
across
what I want then put the pointer where I want the text
to go, and
then hit the right and left mouse buttons at once.  I
can do this with gpm running or not. This does not work
between X and my rdesktop 
window.  Also, if I have wordpad in the rdesktop window
and use it's copy and paste, I cannot seem to move
anything to or from any editor in X that has copy/past
functions.  Are there hot keys to start the copy/paste
operation? Is it simply not supported?  If it is not
supported, then what is the file xclip.c all about?

Sorry, I am not much of a c programmer.

Thanks
JG

Message:
$ rdesktop --help
         '-r clipboard:[off|PRIMARYCLIPBOARD|CLIPBOARD]': enable
clipboard
                      redirection.
                      'PRIMARYCLIPBOARD' looks at both PRIMARY and
CLIPBOARD
                      when sending data to server.
                      'CLIPBOARD' looks at only CLIPBOARD.

And try the newest version of rdesktop. Closing
