NAME
       XStoreBytes, XStoreBuffer, XFetchBytes, XFetchBuffer, XRotateBuffers -
       manipulate cut and paste buffers

SYNTAX
       XStoreBytes(display, bytes, nbytes)
	     Display *display;
	     char *bytes;
	     int nbytes;

       XStoreBuffer(display, bytes, nbytes, buffer)
	     Display *display;
	     char *bytes;
	     int nbytes;
	     int buffer;

       char *XFetchBytes(display, nbytes_return)
	     Display *display;
	     int *nbytes_return;

       char *XFetchBuffer(display, nbytes_return, buffer)
	     Display *display;
	     int *nbytes_return;
	     int buffer;

       XRotateBuffers(display, rotate)
	     Display *display;
	     int rotate;

ARGUMENTS
       buffer	 Specifies the buffer in which you want to store the bytes or
		 from which you want the stored data returned.

       bytes	 Specifies the bytes, which are not necessarily ASCII or null-
		 terminated.

       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       nbytes	 Specifies the number of bytes to be stored.

       nbytes_return
		 Returns the number of bytes in the buffer.

       rotate	 Specifies how much to rotate the cut buffers.

DESCRIPTION
       Note that the data can have embedded null characters, and need not be
       null terminated.	 The cut buffer's contents can be retrieved later by
       any client calling

       can generate a error.

       If an invalid buffer is specified, the call has no effect.  Note that
       the data can have embedded null characters, and need not be null termiā€
       nated.

       can generate a error.

       The function returns the number of bytes in the nbytes_return argument,
       if the buffer contains data.  Otherwise, the function returns NULL and
       sets nbytes to 0.  The appropriate amount of storage is allocated and
       the pointer returned.  The client must free this storage when finished
       with it by calling

       The function returns zero to the nbytes_return argument if there is no
       data in the buffer or if an invalid buffer is specified.

       can generate a error.

       The function rotates the cut buffers, such that buffer 0 becomes buffer
       n, buffer 1 becomes n + 1 mod 8, and so on.  This cut buffer numbering
       is global to the display.  Note that generates errors if any of the
       eight buffers have not been created.

       can generate a error.

DIAGNOSTICS
       The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory.

       A value for an Atom argument does not name a defined Atom.

       Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but
       fails
		 to match in some other way required by the request.

       Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the
       request.
		 Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the
		 full range defined by the argument's type is accepted.	 Any
		 argument defined as a set of alternatives can generate this
		 error.
