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?
