- The _x_c_l_i_p_b_o_a_r_d program is used to collect and display text
- selections that are sent to the CLIPBOARD by other
- clients. It is typically used to save CLIPBOARD selec-
- tions for later use. It stores each CLIPBOARD selection
- as a separate string, each of which can be selected. Each
- time CLIPBOARD is asserted by another application, _x_c_l_i_p_-
- _b_o_a_r_d transfers the contents of that selection to a new
- buffer and displays it in the text window. Buffers are
- never automatically deleted, so you'll want to use the
- delete button to get rid of useless items.
-
- Since _x_c_l_i_p_b_o_a_r_d uses a Text Widget to display the con-
- tents of the clipboard, text sent to the CLIPBOARD may be
- re-selected for use in other applications. _x_c_l_i_p_b_o_a_r_d
- also responds to requests for the CLIPBOARD selection from
- other clients by sending the entire contents of the cur-
- rently displayed buffer.
-
- An _x_c_l_i_p_b_o_a_r_d window has the following buttons across the
- top:
-
- _q_u_i_t When this button is pressed, _x_c_l_i_p_b_o_a_r_d exits.
-
- _d_e_l_e_t_e When this button is pressed, the current buffer is
- deleted and the next one displayed.
-
- _n_e_w Creates a new buffer with no contents. Useful in
- constructing a new CLIPBOARD selection by hand.
-
- _s_a_v_e Displays a File Save dialog box. Pressing the
- Accept button saves the currently displayed buffer
- to the file specified in the text field.
-
- _n_e_x_t Displays the next buffer in the list.
-
- _p_r_e_v_i_o_u_s
- Displays the previous buffer.

- The _x_c_l_i_p_b_o_a_r_d program accepts all of the standard X
- Toolkit command line options as well as the following:
-
- --ww This option indicates that lines of text that are
- too long to be displayed on one line in the clip-
- board should wrap around to the following lines.
-
- --nnww This option indicates that long lines of text

- In order to specify resources, it is useful to know the
- hierarchy of the widgets which compose _x_c_l_i_p_b_o_a_r_d. In the
- notation below, indentation indicates hierarchical struc-
- ture. The widget class name is given first, followed by
- the widget instance name.

- Text is copied to the clipboard whenever a client asserts
- ownership of the CCLLIIPPBBOOAARRDD selection. Text is copied from
- the clipboard whenever a client requests the contents of
- the CCLLIIPPBBOOAARRDD selection. Examples of event bindings that
- a user may wish to include in a resource configuration
- file to use the clipboard are:
-
- *VT100.Translations: #override \
- <Btn3Up>: select-end(CLIPBOARD) \n\
- <Btn2Up>: insert-selection(PRIMARY,CLIPBOARD) \n\
- <Btn2Down>: ignore ()
