Which release did you install. As far as I know, (using Concurrent's 
numbering scheme) the most recent version is 1.1. What hardware are you
running it on?

W've got 1.1 running on a 5520 with a GA-1000 (aurora) display, and cut
and paste  seem to work properly.

I've seen the same on a 12 bit plane Aurora (aka GA-1000) and found it
distracting, but I didn't have time to persue the issue. (I'm sure it
will come back to haunt me.)  Right after that, I found that (of course) 
I could not get the XGCL  application to use a remote server, so I
shelved that course of action.
