From 661a8f0d73a2cf36d0d87ac1e36c6d450eb240c4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Ryder Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2013 23:06:02 +1300 Subject: Start using URxvt clipboard script This script from urxvt-perls[1] copies the PRIMARY X11 selection to the CLIPBOARD. I do like select-to-copy and middle-click pasting most of the time, but it's occasionally frustrating when doing things like trying to replace selected text. This allows me to do explicit pastes with Ctrl-V. I don't like having to include my $HOME path literal in .Xresources; I'll need to find out if there's a tidier way to do it.
