# When using the Text action, grammars may request (the default is not to) to
# input the text using the clipboard rather than emulating keypresses. This has
# the advantage of allowing far more rapid entry of a large chunk of text, but
# may cause strange behavior with programs that don't understand middle click
# paste. This is implemented using xsel, meaning that after text entry xsel may
# remain running until the clipboard is cleared (this is necessary because X11
# clipboards are not buffers, they are communication protocols.). I have verified
# that there should only be at most three xsel processes running at a time,
# though they may be quite long-lived, they do not consume substantial resources.
#
# Few programs use the SECONDARY buffer, which is where we back up the PRIMARY
# buffer (middle click paste) during the operation. This buffer is clobbered.
#
# The server should clear the text it entered from the system clipboard after
# entering it, so you do not need to worry about accidentally pasting it
# somewhere else later.

# Currently this is implemented by sending a middle click. unfortunately, not
# many programs will work with this if the mouse is not precisely where you want
# to click. There is no cross when doing environment way of pasting, which means
# this approach would require a great deal of per environment coding to be
# functional. When and if GTK ever fixes its  broken shift+insert behavior, or at
# least enables users to configure it to work properly, this will become
# workable.
