Hopefully it is just the tone of the writing, but your description of how clipboards work makes it sound like clipboards will still be terrible in Arcan. As a user I no interest whatsoever in a clipboard managers. Basic usage (text from one window to another) is so often frustratingly broken, that if you can fix it, that alone is reason to switch to Arcan. Promise me that when I paste I will see whatever text I just copied, and I will praise your name forever.
- pedrocr 8y agoYou experience broken copy/paste in Xorg these days? I don't think I've had any issues in maybe 10 years.
- drewm1980 8y agoWell classic stuff like xterm and vim work great; it's the new stuff like browsers (or maybe the js heavy pages they run) that are flaky.
- crazyloglad 8y agoIt's up to the WM. In Durden, that's how the default works. Advanced management is if you are working with different security domains etc. and need to protect against other clients polluting the clipboard (classic bitcoin address replace attack for instance). Point being that clipboard behavior is WM controlled, not display-server+manager. http://durden.arcan-fe.com/clipboard http://durden.arcan-fe.com/clipboard
