I have been using Linux a lot lately for my work, and I really like
the X11 selection mechanism where you can paste the last text
selection that you made with the mouse. I was wondering if there is
any way tom implement this behavior between Cocoa applications. It
would imply to detect when the user makes a selection in the UI and
then copy that selection. I suppose this is not easy (if not
impossible!). Does someone see how this could be done?
An application can easily be notified of selection changes in its own
text views, via the did-change-selection notification.
