Re: about empty clipboard

To elaborate slightly (it wasn't until I started digging into urxvt that I worked this out)

When you paste, it doesn't dump the contents of a buffer, it actually sends a request to the application responsible to retrieve the buffer. Thus, if the program is closed the request can't be served and you can't paste.

This is working on the assumption of the selection buffer on X11 though.
