For I am the clipboard master
Those of you using emacs might have gotten very frustrated because its clipboard handling sucks. Instead of cutting and pasting using the CLIPBOARD selection, it uses the PRIMARY selection. So very broken...
Anyway, there's an easy way to fix this, just add:
(menu-bar-enable-clipboard)
(setq x-select-enable-clipboard t)
to your .emacs and you're set!
In other news, I've been working for Imendio for over a month now. It's been a pleasure; interesting projects and nice co-workers. Thanks Richard and Micke!

I love emacs, I use it for everything, but honestly... why isn't this on by default. Why is these even an option that people need to find....
