The Gdk port should be made to support copy/paste to/from the clipboard.
I found the distinction between Pasteboard and Clipboard confusing when I first implemented support for this, so I never went forward with the patch. Can someone with Mac background explain the distinction, and describe which one maps to the conventional clipboard concept?
Created attachment 16827 [details] Initial clipboard implementation for the GTK+ port The gtk_clipboard_get_for_display() calls are slightly repetetive but until we figure out what the difference between Clipboard and Pasteboard is, and whether their implementations can be shared (do they relate to X selections?) there's not much point in doing anything more formal.
