32 "Coding system for communicating with other X clients.
34 When sending text via selection and clipboard, if the target
35 data-type matches with the type of this coding system, it is used
36 for encoding the text. Otherwise (including the case that this
37 variable is nil), a proper coding system is used as below:
39 data-type coding system
40 --------- -------------
41 UTF8_STRING utf-8
42 COMPOUND_TEXT compound-text-with-extensions
43 STRING iso-latin-1
44 C_STRING no-conversion
46 When receiving text, if this coding system is non-nil, it is used
47 for decoding regardless of the data-type. If this is nil, a
48 proper coding system is used according to the data-type as above.
50 See also the documentation of the variable `x-select-request-type' how
51 to control which data-type to request for receiving text.
53 The default value is nil."
