Using Oracle and Netscape we had to use Abiword in-between to cut &
paste at all. Copy from Netscape, paste to Abiword, copy from Abiword,
paste to Oracle. What a royal pain. It was explained to me, but I have
forgotten the reason. Linux will never make it to Joe Lunchbucket's
computer until it becomes resolved, and this problem goes back a LONG
way. It was 6 years ago when we were doing that procedure to copy, cut &
paste.  I feel your pain. :) Ric
