[Bug-XBoard] [bug #27810] Copy Game / Position do not work in XBoard?

[Tim Mann]

Update of bug #27810 (project xboard):

                  Status:             In Progress => Ready For Test

Follow-up Comment #11:

Fixed.  This was a separate bug -- we weren't implementing the part of the X
selection/clipboard protocol that lets another app ask what data format(s) the
selection owner can provide the data in.  Simple apps don't use this but just
ask for string data; more sophisticated ones evidently do use it and don't
enable their Paste menu item if the selection owner doesn't implement it.

I can now copy from xboard and paste into gedit using gedit's Paste menu
item.  I imagine this may fix the issue with Opera Mail too.

I'll leave this in "ready for test" since it's a big enough change now to
need more testing than I gave it.
