Are you sure that formatting is preserved?
No, it's not (I wasn't aware of that feature).
But I suspect that the answer is going to be _no_, in which case we will
have to make a decision how what we want. I can see two solution:
1) we remove the code: this means that the normal X-selection buffer is
used and not the internal selection stack, this also means that
formatting will not be preserved on Unix for LyX internal pasting.
2) we keep the code but we limit the size of the stack: this means that
formatting will be preserved for small selection but not for big ones.
This also means that the pasting will work on windows only if it is
small selection.
I personally think that 1) is the right choice for now...
Opinions?
Obviously, I wouldn't miss the feature.
Maybe others will but I think we have no choice right now. In the
future, we may allow this with a user rc settings for example. So I am
going to comment out this code with appropriate comments.
Abdel.
