Re: [Bug: 21.4.13] Cygwin XEmacs cut-and-past broken on Win2000

Mike,

This appears to be something in your configuration. I just ran the net
installer to install the cygwin build of 21.4.13 on two separate windows 2000
boxes, and cut-n-paste works perfectly with the windows clipboard on both
machines. Perhaps you're loading something in your init file that's fouling up
the clipboard interaction?

Looks like the problem is (gnuserv-start) in my .xemacs/init.el, which contains:

(require 'gnuserv)
(gnuserv-start)
(setq gnuserv-frame (selected-frame))

Am I doing the right thing? How should I handle this?

Thanks,

Mike
