I don't know what you mean by even when not using 9term.  For an
example of use: in a win in acme I call perforce with EDITOR=sam; sam
takes over my acme window until I'm done, as expected.  Can you give
me an example?

  I didn't go hack a rio to run in a window, though - it's not a
libdraw tool under p9p.

The acme errors that spew are of the flavour:
/home/plalonde/plan9/bin/acme: cannot handle selection request for
'text/plain;charset=UTF-8' (239)

and happen when X11 gets a selection passed to it by synergy (the
multi-computer mouse/keyboard sharing tool).
