Thanks for fixing. I tested 1.4.16-5 and found another problem in putclip. If non-ASCII chars are passed to putclip, clip board has garbage at the end. Run 'echo αβγ | putclip', then paste clip board to notepad. 'αβγ' is pasted with a few bytes of garbage. It seems that the longer non-ASCII string generages longer garbage. Running 'echo αβγαβγαβγαβγαβγαβγ | putclip' and pasting clip board here, results something like: αβγαβγαβγαβγαβγαβγ z⊨z⊨z⊨z⊨z⊨zἰz⊨z᪨zἰ Sometimes, error message: "Couldn't write CF_TEXT format to the clipboard." is shown. My locale is "ja_JP.UTF-8".
