gEDA-dev: Copy, Cut and Paste in gschem CVS HEAD now



Hi,

Couple of hopefully useful usability changes:

	* I've added Edit/Cut Buffer, Edit/Copy Buffer, and Edit/Paste
	  Buffer which are associated with the hotkeys Control-x,
	  Control-c, and Control-v to gschem.  No, I am not going to
	  replace the existing multi-hotkey mechanism with a more familiar
	  Control-? scheme, but I am quite willing to add hotkeys like
	  this.  If it weren't for a few menu item enabling/disabling
	  code issues, these hotkeys would have been added by just
	  changing system-gschemrc without changing any source code.

	* The Help menu item is no longer right justified.  It seems that
	  a while ago Apple and subsequently GNOME decided that a right
	  justified help menu is harder to find.

	* The Buffer/Paste from X commands are properly disabled if there
	  is nothing in the associated buffer.	Cutting or Copying should
	  enable the correct menu item.

	* After a paste command is picked from the menu, the outline
	  of what is about to pasted is automatically shown, instead of
	  the old behavior of doing nothing waiting for the user to click.

Comments?

	-Ales
