NAME
     xcutsel - interchange between cut buffer and selection

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/bin/xcutsel  [  -toolkitoption  ...] [-selection selec-
     tion] [-cutbuffer number]

DESCRIPTION
     The xcutsel program is used to copy  the  current  selection
     into  a cut buffer and to make a selection that contains the
     current contents of the cut buffer.  It  acts  as  a  bridge
     between applications that don't support selections and those
     that do.

     By default, xcutsel will use the selection named PRIMARY and
     the  cut buffer CUT_BUFFER0.  Either or both of these can be
     overridden by command line arguments or by resources.

     An xcutsel window has the following buttons:

         quit
             When this button is  pressed,  xcutsel  exits.   Any
             selections   held   by   xcutsel  are  automatically
             released.

         copy PRIMARY to 0
             When this button is pressed, xcutsel copies the cur-
             rent selection into the cut buffer.

         copy 0 to PRIMARY
             When  this  button  is pressed, xcutsel converts the
             current contents of the cut buffer into  the  selec-
             tion.

     The  button  labels  reflect  the  selection  and  cutbuffer
     selected by command line options  or  through  the  resource
     database.

     When the ``copy 0 to PRIMARY'' button is activated, the but-
     ton will remain inverted as  long  as  xcutsel  remains  the
     owner  of  the  selection.   This serves to remind you which
     client owns the current selection.  Note that the  value  of
     the selection remains constant; if the cutbuffer is changed,
     you must again activate the copy button to retrieve the  new
     value when desired.

OPTIONS
     Xcutsel  accepts  all of the standard X Toolkit command line
     options as well as the following:

     -selection name
             This option specifies the name of the  selection  to

             use.   The  default  is PRIMARY.  The only supported
             abbreviations  for  this  option  are   ``-select'',
             ``-sel''  and ``-s'', as the standard toolkit option
             ``-selectionTimeout'' has a similar name.

     -cutbuffer number
             This option specifies the cut buffer  to  use.   The
             default is cut buffer 0.

X DEFAULTS
     This  program accepts all of the standard X Toolkit resource
     names and classes as well as:

     selection (class Selection)
             This resource specifies the name of the selection to
             use.  The default is PRIMARY.

     cutBuffer (class CutBuffer)
             This resource specifies the number of the cut buffer
             to use.  The default is 0.

WIDGET NAMES
     The following instance names may be used when user  configu-
     ration of the labels in them is desired:

     sel-cut (class Command)
             This is the ``copy SELECTION to BUFFER'' button.

     cut-sel (class Command)
             This is the ``copy BUFFER to SELECTION'' button.

     quit (class Command)
             This is the ``quit'' button.

BUGS
     There  is  no way to change the name of the selection or the
     number of the cut buffer while the program is running.
