This is how I expect it to work, but it doesn't work; nothing is
pasted in TextEdit.app. (If something has been copied in a native
application, then that is pasted rather than what was copied in
xterm). The opposite direction (native application -> X11 application)
is exactly in the same situation.

It doesn't work with X11 2.3.2.1, but it does work with X11 2.3.1. So
I think settings in the preferences are OK.

Thank you.
