 * ST Patches Open Work
 ** TODO [#A] prefers system (browser) clipboard instead of terminal clipboard
+*** 2023-07-23 @ 13:56:02 -0500 patch applied successfully w/o issue
+*** Description and URL
+The Freedesktop standard requires you to remember which clipboard you are keeping selections in. If you switch between a terminal and browser, you may find this UX jarring.
+Description
+
+This trivial patch sets CLIPBOARD on selection, the same as your browser.
+
+You may want to replace selpaste with clippaste in your config.h bindings to complete the effect.
