Is there any hope of allowing users to configure what modifier keys they want to use for emulating the middle and right buttons on the mouse?

We have a bug open on this, but I don't know if/when it will be done


Also, XDarwin would automatically copy whatever was in the copy/cut buffer over to the MacOS buffer when you switched from XDarwin to any other Mac application. It would also copy in from the MacOS buffer to the X11 buffer when you switched back, if anything was there. This meant that you usually didn't have to use Command-C at all. Very > nice!

The quartz-wm does this. But it doesn't do the cut buffers, just whatever is on the CLIPBOARD selection when switching from X11 to native (i.e. whatever you last copy'd or cut in an X application). The "Command-C" shortcut when X11 is active copies the contents of the PRIMARY selection (i.e. whatever's currently selected) to the native pasteboard


When you switch the other way it puts whatever is on the pasteboard onto both PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD selections.

Also, in the next release it will be possible to get the selection proxying features with any window manager,
