I am using XMing+Putty to access a Linux machine from an XP32 machine. I can copy text from windows and paste it to Linux fine, but I can't copy from Linux and paste to Windows consistently. If I try several times (or hold down the paste keystroke) it will eventually paste; sometimes several times!
I would like to improve the consistency of my Linux to Window pastes. I have per-mutated every combo of Clipboard and Clipboard2. I can not edit /etc/gdm/custom.conf like some other fixes suggest. I have been informed the Linux admins will not allocate resources to resolve this problem in the near future so any fixes need to be Windows side or able to be done without root/admin privileges.
How to remove the auto tab ? After i wrote ( { )In the terminal there is auto tab .. this looks handy at first but :When i copy paste from universal clipboard it keeps tabbing making the scripts very long .. Is there a setting how to remove it
i'm used to using putty on a window's machine.With putty whatever you select is automatically on the clipboard without having to right click and select copy.And right click just pastes.
while checking out open office i noticed something strange. while the "copy" shortcut command seems to be disabled / unalloted , it does work in practice !i noticed in keyboard shortcuts that there is no command alloted with the Ctrl + C combination. this i saw from both the "shortcuts" and the "functions" menus in customize.
1) I manually enter a particular web site address in the browser.
2) When the page displays on my machine, it shows a number of links I need to visit, one after the other.
3) Each of these links display another page (file) from which I "cut and paste" information. I do this by highlighting manually the wanted info, click "copy" then select an open file on my computer, select "undo" if necessary to remove any previous content, click "paste" and then "save".
4) I then call a Yabasic program that reads the saved file and trims unwanted info.
5) At the completion of the Yabasic program, I click the web page tag, click the "back" button to return to the first page (since I am in the second) and click the next link in this first page till all links have been visited.
6) visit the next known web site and repeat 1 to 5
In an automated program, what I need to do is:
1) Visit the known page of the web site showing the links 2) save the page showing the links (the first page) 3) make a list of those links 4) visit each link one after the other and save its page from which I will programmatically (Yabasic) select info. 5) repeat 1 to 4
I can do this in "Yabasic" (which can issue Linux commands) or PHP although I do not know PHP much.the purpose of this is to associate towns and cities of the world with their respective political/geographical divisions and their respective time zone. This has to be done often because that data changes regularly.
Using fluxbox in 13.1. If I select text in rxvt and then click the mouse wheel it pastes the selection at the cursor. But apparently it does not use the clipboard to do this, because if I Ctrl-v into another app, say jedit, it doesnt paste the rxvt selection, it pastes the last thing that was put on the clipboard. Is there any way to get rxvt to use the clipboard?
I want to know how to access the clipboard in Open Office. I want to get to the things that I have put there by cutting or copying them so that I can re-paste. how to cut and paste one item at a time (and doesn't even mention copying!)
My usb stick will not allow me to easily copy and paste files on to it, or delete them once I no longer want them on the drive. Its owner is root. How can I change the owner? At the moment it is loading as a stylesheet in media/usb0.
The file is transferring at a very low speed. 74mb in 4 minutes
I suspect I will do better if I set up the drive via fstab. What entry should I put in fstab for a USB stick drive?
just installed ubuntu couple of days back on my netbook. I am still a beginner, enjoying my adventure exploring ubuntu. I have another desktop which runs on XP. I am able to access XP shared folders through my netbook(linux). However, i wanted to copy files from XP infact folders using TERMINAL in my netbook, not copy and paste using my mouse. Are there any commands for it?
Seems a utility called "xclip" and "xsel" are required, but is there anything simpler, that doesn't require extra utilities, along the lines ofCode:cat foo.txt > clipboardThis would for GNOME.
I want to copy a highlighted field to the clipboard (not the copy/paste within vim but the clipboard that can be pasted outside of vim). I can do this by using the mouse but using the visual command (v) and then the yank command (y) does not do that.Is there a way to do this without the mouse?
I would like to set Y and P to copy and paste directly to the system clipboard instead of vim buffer. I don't want any additional commands. Just the normal ones, but they should copy to and paste from the system clipboard and bypass the vim buffer.
Tried this, but there's no such a command in Arch.And this also doesn't work:Code:find ~ | grep -i pidgin | xclipboard Error: another clipboard is already running
Just installed 10.10 32-bit on a Lenovo T61p laptop, and used Remote Desktop Viewer (version 2.3.2) to VNC into another system. I can copy from an application on 10.10 and then paste into a window in the VNC connection (e.g. to xterm or emacs), but I cannot do the reverse. When I try to paste, I get garbage displayed. For example, I selected "ls -l" from an xterm, which should have copied to the clipboard. When I paste this into an e-mail message, I get junk.
Here is what Emacs in hexl-mode says about that text: 7852 3109 05 xR1.. It shows as "xR1" some whitespace and then a tiny graphical box symbol with 00 and 05 in it. I'll try to paste it on the next line: Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround? Another app I can use? xR1 This same VNC connection works fine, when I use 10.04.
In windows using remote desktop connection you can press Ctrl+Alt+minus to copy the current window on the remote desktop to the clipboard. How do you do that in Ubuntu's terminal server client? I have not found any key combination that works
My xfce4-screenshooter GUI has the option Copy to the Clipboard, but I could not find this option in its' cI'm trying to bind printscreen key with this. I know that in order for the option to work I need to have the application always running (in GUI thre is option Close the application after screenshot , again somenthing that I can not find in command line).
What is everyone's favorite screenshot programs? I really don't like the gnome one. A timer feature is very important to me and the gnome one doesn't have it.
I found the Xfce4 Screenshooter and it has a timer. Are there any other good ones that other people like? If there was a way to copy the picture to your clipboard that would make me even happier. I almost always edit my screenshots after I take them so that would be even more helpful. [url] [url]
Anyone know why, my copy & paste in the terminal doesn't work....it's there, just not highlighted, I need to install Sun Java and can copy the command lines from the forum I just can't paste them into the terminal. Also is there a way to check that my Ubuntu download to my USB stick is error free?
The usual vim yank and paste works only in the same window (but does work across files and close/save commands). Is it possible to make it work across terminals (yank from window in one terminal and paste in another) and if so, how?
I can't Copy, paste, select all, or find with my keyboard... pretty much all the commands that involve the Control key don't work. in firefox... the edit> copy, paste , etc commands are actually grayed out too.
I'm running Lucid, and whenever I run a program in gnome-terminal that captures the mouse (dvtm, elinks, mc) I cannot highlight any text, which prevents me from copying any text from the terminal.
I can't copy & paste text from an Evolution email message without first pasting the text into an editor like gedit or a word processor and recopying it a second time... Then it works fine... I thought the problem may have been a Delphi forum specific problem, but it also does the same thing on this board...
I running 10.04 with the default Evolution mail program.
BTW on Delphi I can turn off the wysiwyg editor and paste as "source" and it works just fine without the paste and recopy step...
