Pasting from xclip to Mozilla Thunderbird works for me IFF the selection is 4096 bytes or less. But it looks like a bug in xclip, not Mozilla. Try this: $ (for i in `seq 1 4096`; do echo -n 'a'; done) | xclip $ xclip -o aaaaaaaaaaaa......aaa $ (for i in `seq 1 4097`; do echo -n 'a'; done) | xclip $ xclip -o [hangs] This is with SuSE 8.2 and xclip from a Debian package xclip_0.08-4_i386.deb . > There is no good reason for this not to work in mozilla. > Therefore it's a bug. Not a Mozilla bug. Michal
