Apologies for this OT thread. I appreciate the help and am happy to take it offlist (username nadeemf on gmail). I don't check 'Enable keyboard shortcuts under X11' since I mainly use X11 for running a remote installation of emacs and couldn't bear closing the window every time I did Meta-w (kill-ring-save). The behaviour of emacs in a remote X11 is very odd with Apple's X11 - highlight text and do Edit:Copy and it doesn't copy it, but if you save it to the kill ring and then copy (after waiting a second) it will export. Incidentally if you forgot to Edit:Copy soon after copying it to the kill ring it also seems to get lost. NB The other weird behaviour is pasting into a remote emacs from a Carbon application (eg Firefox) sends Classic Mac carriage returns instead of the Unix ones now preferred. I much preferred the automatic clipboard copying I get under Window's Hummingbird eXceed or under Adrian Umpleby's OroborOSX (which seemed to die after Apple brought out their X11). I tried installing a different (windows manager wmaker from fink or DarwinPorts) and changed exec quartz-wm to quartz-wm --only-proxy & exec /sw/bin/wmaker The other wm ran happily but the clipboard export behaviour was unchanged. Sorry again for this off-topic posting.
