-@cindex cut buffer

- Whenever Emacs saves some text to the primary selection, it may also
-save it to the @dfn{cut buffer}. The cut buffer is an obsolete
-predecessor to the primary selection; most modern applications do not
-use it. Saving text to the cut buffer is slow and inefficient, so
-Emacs only does it if the text is shorter than the value of
-@code{x-cut-buffer-max} (20000 characters by default).

You can yank the primary selection into Emacs using the usual yank
commands, such as @kbd{C-y} (@code{yank}) and @kbd{Mouse-2}
(@code{mouse-yank-at-click}). These commands actually check the

-@cindex cut buffer
-The X server also has a set of eight numbered @dfn{cut buffers} which can
-store text or other data being moved between applications. Cut buffers
-are considered obsolete, but Emacs supports them for the sake of X
-clients that still use them. Cut buffers are numbered from 0 to 7.

-@defun x-get-cut-buffer &optional n

-@defun x-set-cut-buffer string &optional push
-@anchor{Definition of x-set-cut-buffer}
-This function stores @var{string} into the first cut buffer (cut buffer
-0). If @var{push} is @code{nil}, only the first cut buffer is changed.
-If @var{push} is non-@code{nil}, that says to move the values down
-through the series of cut buffers, much like the way successive kills in
-Emacs move down the kill ring. In other words, the previous value of
-the first cut buffer moves into the second cut buffer, and the second to
-the third, and so on through all eight cut buffers.
