wxcopy(1)

NAME

   wxcopy - copy stdin or file into X11 cutbuffer

SYNOPSIS

   wxcopy [options] [filename]

DESCRIPTION

   wxcopy  copies stdin or filename into the cutbuffer. If no cutbuffer is
   specified, the data will be copied  into  cutbuffer  0  and  the  other
   cutbuffers  will  be rotated, if present.  If a cutbuffer is specified,
   the data is copied into that cutbuffer, and no rotation of  buffers  is
   performed.

OPTIONS

   --clear-selection
          Clears  the  PRIMARY  selection owner. In practice it means that
          when you try to paste the data with the middle mouse button (for
          example)  it  will  paste the data from cut buffer 0, instead of
          any eventually existing mouse selection.

   --cutbuffer number
          Specifies the number of the cutbuffer to copy data to.

   -display display-name
          The data will be copied  in  the  cutbuffers  of  the  specified
          display/screen.

   --help print a help message with the list of options.

   --no-limit
          Makes  the  normal  64kb limit check not to be performed, making
          the buffer attempt to grow to whatever size is required.

   --version
          print the version of Window Maker from which the program comes.
