I have always heard that there is some windows spyware which can hack one's clipboard and highjack the data. For this possibility, I always, after copying my credit card number to be pasted in on a web page, I copy some other text to over-write the credit card number.

Personally, whatever I've needed to copy from a text console has been easy enough to handle via xclip. I certainly don't need to do this sort of thing every day. It almost seems to me to be more trouble than it's worth. Maybe someone with a more frequent need for this sort of integration could give us a different perspective? Best, Zack. _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup E-mail message checked by Spyware Doctor (6.1.0.447) Database version: 6.13520 http://www.pctools.com/en/spyware-doctor-antivirus/ E-mail message checked by Spyware Doctor (6.1.0.447) Database version: 6.13520 http://www.pctools.com/en/spyware-doctor-antivirus/
