/*
 * This class provides an automatic synchronization of the X11 Clipboard and Selection
 * buffers. There are two configuration options in the kdeglobals configuration file,
 * in the [General] section:
 * - SynchronizeClipboardAndSelection - whenever the Selection changes, Clipboard is
 *   set to the same value. This can be also enabled in Klipper.
 * - ClipboardSetSelection - whenever the Clipboard changes, Selection is set
 *   to the same value. This setting is only for die-hard fans of the old broken
 *   KDE1/2 behavior, which can potentionally lead to unexpected problems,
 *   and this setting therefore can be enabled only in the configuration file.
 *
 *  Whenever reporting any bug only remotely related to clipboard, first make
 *  sure you can reproduce it when both these two options are turned off,
 *  especially the second one.
