xterm addressed this issue with an option to copy between the PRIMARY selectino and CLIPBOARD.
The option can be set via command line xterm -ls -xrm ‘XTerm*selectToClipboard: true’
or via Xdefaults: XTerm*selectToClipboard: true

Would be great to have this feature in putty.

I run a VNC server on a Linux server and connect to it from Windows. Copy and pasting from putty running on the server in VNC to a windows application is a four or five step process where as it should be just select and paste.

Thank you.
