Code: Select all

xclip  -i -selection primary
But..... I think it gets wiped out if the program exits.

Cheers,

(EDIT) NO,it isn't wiped: Just tried it after Pnote exit - it still pastes in a terminal and is not on clipboard.

think it's just writing everything to the buffer instead of the clipboard...

Hello Charlie
I have not used IceWM for ages, and have no idea on how to set it all up.

Sorry
Sigmund

Thanks for replying, Sigmund !

Edited:
I thought finding a workaround for it ... but nope ! :cry:
Using Menu/Utilities/Xbinkeys Config Tool does not work under Icewm WM.
It just work one time just after doing "Apply Save & Exit" in Xbinkeys Config Tool! (although there is a xbindkeys symlink in /root/Strartup). It does not longer work after closing the pnotes window.

(When finished to enter a text inside the Pnotes window, the Pnotes window shuts off by moving the mouses cursor inside it and leaving the window.)

I found another solution:
adding a keys combination like

Code: Select all

key "Alt+Ctrl+w"		pnote
inside /root/.icewm/keys works :)

Greetings
Charlie
