Re: [B2-devel] [PATCH] More clipboard-related fixes for Basilisk / SheepShaver

[Alexei S. <ale...@gm...>]

Have you tried using the Mac OS extension that Jean-Pierre posted to this

I think it's meant to solve exactly the problem of needing to change app
focus before clipboard changes "stick".

I'd be curious to know whether it improves things for you.
