Subject: [TUHS] X11 Secondary Selection
Date: Wed, 24 Oct 2018 17:00:18 -0600	[thread overview]

Does anyone know any history about X11's secondary selection?

What did / still does use it?

I'm fairly familiar with the primary selection and clipboard.  But I'm 
not aware of anything that uses the secondary selection.
