I should add that I think taking advantage of a clipboard client such as klipper is really the way to go. I think it may be wasted effort to duplicate what these clipboard clients are already doing.
Frankly, I was planning to submit a patch to remove the last bit of code that provided this functionality.

The clipboard code is in dlls/x11/clipboard.c. dlls/x11drv/wineclipsrv.c contains the code for the separate process that is suppose to be launched to host the clipboard data once the application exits. I haven't looked at this in a while. I'm not sure what state it's in.

The short answer is no. We did have this functionality before and much of the code is still in cvs but it was broken for some time and I've disabled it. With a little bit of work it could be added back.
There are other ways to do this such as using klipper.

Hi, Does WINE support access to clipboard data across WINE processes. For
e.g.
one app opens the clipboard and sets data into it using SetClipboardData, closes it and then exits. The other
app
tries to retrieve this data. It works in windows but doesnt seem to do so in WINE. Regards Santosh Siddheshwar
