The winoldap interface is not implemented (and you didn't mention it in the report anyway), but the clipboard access with mouse works perfectly. > BTW, it does not work with the mouse: 1) in these (and many others) I > cannot use the mouse to select text because it is used by the dos > program. Selecting the DOS text is best to do when dosemu is paused by Ctrl-Alt-p. It would probably even make sense to disallow the selection otherwise. > 2) even in pure command line mode, I can select text but the > middle mouse button copies the text into the dosemu keyboard buffer, > not the Linux clipboard. Have you considered pressing the middle button in the window you want to paste the text to, not in the window where you selected it?
