Hi, just got back from a two-week holiday and tried out the 4.8.2 XFCE
settings manager with a new build of Emacs trunk (bzr revno 104439).
It works great, blazing fast compared to how it used to be. And using
the little clipboard panel widget I can see that the stuff I kill from
Emacs is making it into XFCE's clipboard manager, and is still present
after Emacs is closed. Great thanks, everyone!
