14 The sel_config file specifies how a system that is configured with
15 Trusted Extensions behaves when a user transfers data between windows
16 that have different labels. Transfer operations include cut-and-paste,
17 copy-and-paste, and drag-and-drop. There are two types of entries in
18 this file: automatic confirmation and automatic reply.
19
20 Automatic Confirmation
21 This type of entry specifies whether a confirmation window, the selec‐
22 tion confirmer, displays. Each entry has the form:
23
24 relationship: confirmation
25
26
27
28
29 relationship identifies the result of comparing the selected data's
30 source and destination windows' labels. There are three allowed values:
31
32 upgradesl The source window's label is less than the destina‐
33 tion window's label.
34
35
36 downgradesl The source window's label is higher than the desti‐
37 nation window's label.
38
39
40 disjointsl The source and destination windows' labels are dis‐
41 joint. Neither label dominates the other.
42
43
44
45 confirmation specifies whether to perform automatic confirmation.
46 Allowed values are:
47
48 n Use manual confirmation, that is, display the selection confirmer
49 window. This is the default.
50
51
52 y Use automatic confirmation, that is, do not display the selection
53 confirmer window.
54
55
56 Automatic Reply
57 A single user operation can involve several flows of information
58 between the source and destination windows. The automatic reply set of
59 entries provides a means to reduce the number of confirmations that are
60 required of the user.
61
62
63 There must be one entry of this form:
64
65 autoreply: value
66
67
68
69
70 If value is y (for yes), then the remaining entries of the set are used
71 as attributes for the selection data (rather than the actual contents)
72 to complete the operation without confirmation. If value is n (for no),
73 then the remaining entries are ignored.
74
75
76 Defaults can be specified for any type field that appears in the Con‐
77 firmer window. Below are some sample entries for defaults.
78
79 replytype: TARGETS
80 replytype: Pixel Sets
81 replytype: LENGTH
82 replytype: Type Of Monitor
83
84
85
86
87 The TARGETS entry, when used, returns the list of target atoms that are
88 supported by the source window. The Pixel Sets and Type Of Monitor
89 entries are used for animation during a drag-and-drop operation. The
90 LENGTH entry specifies the number of bytes in the selection.
