NAME

6       wxcopy - copy stdin or file into X11 cutbuffer
7

SYNOPSIS

9       wxcopy [options] [filename]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       wxcopy  copies stdin or filename into the cutbuffer. If no cutbuffer is
13       specified, the data will be copied into cutbuffer 0 and the other  cut‐
14       buffers  will be rotated, if present.  If a cutbuffer is specified, the
15       data is copied into that cutbuffer, and no rotation of buffers is  per‐
16       formed.
17

OPTIONS

19       --clear-selection
20              Clears  the  PRIMARY  selection owner. In practice it means that
21              when you try to paste the data with the middle mouse button (for
22              example)  it  will  paste the data from cut buffer 0, instead of
23              any eventually existing mouse selection.
24
25       --cutbuffer number
26              Specifies the number of the cutbuffer to copy data to.
27
28       -display display-name
29              The data will be copied in the cutbuffers of the specified  dis‐
30              play/screen.
31
32       --help print a help message with the list of options.
33
34       --no-limit
35              Makes  the  normal  64kb limit check not to be performed, making
36              the buffer attempt to grow to whatever size is required.
37
38       --version
39              print the version of Window Maker from which the program comes.
