Comment(by kdave):

 Quoting from the first patch:

 -{ALT ('a'), copy_current_pathname},
 +{ALT ('a'), copy_to_clip_cmd},

 Please explain why do you redefine Alt-a . Please explain why do you need
 to add a concept of a clipboard to mc itself. I understand that it may be
 useful in the mcedit, but why is it needed to take it elsewhere? What's
 wrong with GPM and mouse to copy&paste text around?
