About pbproxy ------------- pbproxy is an application that transfers selections to/from X11 and the Mac pasteboard/clipboard. It supports copying strings, such as UTF-8, Latin-1, and Compound text. In addition to those, there is support for image copying, so you can copy images to/from the X11 Gimp (and other X11 applications that support image copying) and Mac applications. There is also support for copying and pasting very large amounts of data that used to previously fail. o Is it for me? If you currently experience problems with the existing copy/paste code in XQuartz or would like to copy images, then give this a try. pbproxy probably will solve the problems. o Downloads The home page of pbproxy and my XQuartz projects: http://people.freedesktop.org/~gstaplin/ This is what you want (the binaries with an installer): http://people.freedesktop.org/~gstaplin/pbproxy_test-10.tar.bz2 http://people.freedesktop.org/~gstaplin/pbproxy_test-10.tar.bz2.md5 o Sources The sources to pbproxy are currently in the git repository for the 1.4 apple branch of the X.org xserver. o Thanks Thanks to Apple, and especially (in no particular order) Jeremy Huddleston, and Jordan K. Hubbard this project has been improved, and made possible. o Feedback Please report problems/bugs and/or success stories to this xquartz-dev list, or gstaplin@apple.com Enjoy, George -- http://www.xmission.com/~georgeps/ http://whim.linuxsys.net http://code.google.com/p/megapkg/ http://people.freedesktop.org/~gstaplin/
