Thanks for that. I find X very confusing and mainly just want a simple
xterm to run mutt, slrn and unix like-codes. I think I may have a messed
up system with not having a clean upgrade to the latest X. I was using
startx and I can not see where XWin is called there. Maybe I'm blind. I
am now using startswin.bat and I've played with startxwin.sh. That
clearly calls XWin and I have the -blipboard argument in and it works
fine. However the -multiwindow causes an error and it just gives an
xterm, but that is fine for now. I'll look into that later.
Cheers, Brian.
