That is useful to know. So does anyone know how to copy to the

Using X11.app's Edit->Copy menu usually works for me. What doesn't
work is the keyboard shortcut cmd-C that is supposed to be equivalent
to this menu entry.
But this may be related to a more general bug in keyboard shortcuts
for menus on OSX: For me, user-defined keyboard shortcuts only work
when the corresponding menu has been opened at least once. And this
works also in X11.app: Click on the Edit menu title so that the menu
drops down. Then hit cmd-C and it works. After this, cmd-C works until
you shift the focus to some other application (which, unfortunately,
is likely to happen if you copy things into some non-X11 window). So
in a sense cmd-C in X11.app works (or rather doesn't work) like a
user-defined keyboard shortcut in other applications.
