WebTerm X Frequently Asked Questions

Can I copy and paste text and graphics with WebTerm X?

You can copy text from or paste text to X windows that have text fields. You can also copy graphics from X windows to the Windows clipboard.
Copy Text to the Windows Clipboard:
WebTerm X automatically copies the primary text selection to the Windows clipboard. Use your X applications procedure to copy text to the primary text selection, where it will then automatically appear on the Windows clipboard with no further actions. For example, to copy text from an xterm you would simply highlight the text (this is the applications procedure to copy text to the primary text selection).
Paste Text from the Windows Clipboard:
When new text appears on the Windows clipboard, WebTerm X changes the primary text selection to the contents of the Windows clipboard. You can paste it to the X client application using that application's paste function. For example: To past text into an xterm window you would click the middle button. If using a two button mouse to emulate the middle mouse button press down the LEFT BUTTON + RIGHT BUTTON simultaneous. Also see FAQ "How do I emulate the third mouse button on a two button mouse?".
