Hello, While using xfontsel 1.06, I noticed that the 'select' button writes to the PRIMARY buffer in an unconventional way. Some programs can't read the PRIMARY after this is done. Steps to reproduce: 1) run `autocutsel -s PRIMARY -verbose -debug` (to track PRIMARY) 1) run `xfontsel` from terminal, choose a fndry, font etc 2) click select 3) middle click/shift+insert into a program (st, firefox) 4) nothing is pasted, autocutsel reports nothing However, certain programs such as xterm, gvim, and leafpad _are_ able to read PRIMARY after the selection.
`xclip -o` reports the selection, but only after running` xclip -o | xclip -i` do I get something that will work with the programs mentioned above. Another workaround is `xfontsel -print | xclip -i`, but I think there is a bug in the select button code. Other X utilities such as Xedit do not exhibit such behaviour. Thanks, Ivan
