NAME

6       wxpaste - output a cutbuffer to stdout
7

SYNOPSIS

9       wxpaste [options]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       wxpaste  outputs  the contents of the specified cutbuffer to stdout. If
13       no cutbuffer is specified, the cutbuffer 0 will be used as default.
14

OPTIONS

16       --cutbuffer number
17              The data will be pasted from the specified cutbuffer, instead of
18              the default 0.
19
20       -display display-name
21              Specifies  the display where wxpaste should look for the data to
22              be pasted.
23
24       --help print a help message with the list of options.
25
26       --selection [selection-name]
27              The data will be copied from the  named  selection.  If  cutting
28              from  the  selection  fails,  the  cutbuffer  will  be used. The
29              default value for the selection name is PRIMARY.
30
31       --version
32              print the version of Window Maker from which the program comes.
33

BUGS

35       When used without a selection name, the --selection option must be  the
36       last  one.   The  syntax  could be cleaned, but backwards compatibility
37       prevents that...
38
39       INCR and MULTIPLE selection types are not handled. Actually, only  sim‐
40       ple  text  selections are handled, which should be enough for most uses
41       of a utility such as this.
