31 "Coding system for communicating with other programs.
32
33 For MS-Windows and MS-DOS:
34 When sending or receiving text via selection and clipboard, the text
35 is encoded or decoded by this coding system. The default value is
36 the current system default encoding on 9x/Me, `utf-16le-dos'
37 \(Unicode) on NT/W2K/XP, and `iso-latin-1-dos' on MS-DOS.
38
39 For X Windows:
40 When sending text via selection and clipboard, if the target
41 data-type matches with the type of this coding system, it is used
42 for encoding the text. Otherwise (including the case that this
43 variable is nil), a proper coding system is used as below:
44
45 data-type coding system
46 --------- -------------
47 UTF8_STRING utf-8
48 COMPOUND_TEXT compound-text-with-extensions
49 STRING iso-latin-1
50 C_STRING no-conversion
51
52 When receiving text, if this coding system is non-nil, it is used
53 for decoding regardless of the data-type. If this is nil, a
54 proper coding system is used according to the data-type as above.
55
56 See also the documentation of the variable `x-select-request-type' how
57 to control which data-type to request for receiving text.
58
59 The default value is nil."
