copy with the middle mouse

Forum thread started by czeidler on Wed, 2005-12-14 13:01

Hi,

maybe someone know this from linux: You mark a text with the mouse in a arbitrary application , then the text is copied to the clipboard and could be insert with the middle mouse.
How can I realize this on BeOS? My Problem is to know the last marked text.

Donation feedback

Forum thread started by segador on Tue, 2005-12-06 19:10

One thing that I believe would help gather more donations would be some kind of fund raising bar on the Haiku main page. It should be updated every day and show the current months balance of funds in relation to how much is needed to keep developers like Axel on the payroll, and perhaps another level for how much would be needed to hire more developers fulltime.

BeOS Binary Compatibility

Forum thread started by red_devel on Wed, 2005-11-23 22:04

Hey- I'd like to get a clearer picture of this project's plan with achieving, and eventually breaking, binary compatibility with BeOS. The stated goal seems to be: achieve binary compatibility in R1, and then break it in R2 so the project can move away from using the outdated gcc 2.95.

MIT $100 laptop project

Forum thread started by DLazlo on Fri, 2005-11-18 04:31

I'm not sure where the specs for it are yet, or when it will be availible, but if it's anywhere near compatible with Haiku, I will pledge the cost of the first as soon as they become availible to be donated to the Haiku development team.
