Thanks. I know all that. My question was about this pair of calls on
X, not about Windows.
And hasn't that now been answered?
for x11:
sv = x11 x-get-selection-value
gs = x11 x-get-selection
sv alone : ok
gs alone: bad, though [1]
sv then gs: okayish but pointless: gets to gs but gs will fail [2]
gs then sv: bad, though [1]
[1] if you were to add a 'TEXT to the gs call, gs would get unicode as
'TEXT is a pseudo data type that tries several. However it would not
respect x-select-request-type like sv does, which would still be
arguably bad, though less so than just getting a 'STRING would be.
[2] except very rare races? thinking of a selection getting defined
between the two calls in emacs, if context switched away after the first...
