scripting - indesign copy layer to another document -


i trying write script copies layer 1 document another.

var srcdocname = 0; var destdocname = 1; var layernameoriginal = "original"; var layernamecopyto = "destination";  var destdoc = app.documents.item(destdocname); var layersrc = app.documents.item(srcdocname).layers.item(layernameoriginal);  try {           layersrc.duplicate(destdoc, elementplacement.inside);     }     catch(e) {           alert(e)         }

apparently works in photoshop not in indesign. have been trying ages find decent documentation indesign scripting. can find cs scripting guide, isn't of use.

http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/adobe/en/products/indesign/pdfs/indesigncs5_scriptingguide_js.pdf

if can point me reference object model grateful.

after more googling found answer:

 var sourcelayer = app.documents[0].layers.itembyname("layer1");  var destlayer = app.documents[1].layers[0];   sourcelayer.pageitems.everyitem().duplicate(destlayer);

i came across jongware seems complete object reference extracted directly out of adobe cs.

linux - xterm copying to CLIPBOARD using copy-selection causes automatic updating of CLIPBOARD upon mouse selection -

i've tried various ways coerce xterm (versions 285 , 292) copy selection clipboard clipboard whenever press ctrl-shift-c. promising way far has been, in ~/.xresources, put this: xterm*vt100.translations: #override \ ctrl shift <keypress> c: copy-selection(clipboard) \n\ ctrl shift <keypress> v: insert-selection(clipboard) ctrl-shift-v works perfectly, copying has nuance... if restart xterm, highlighting text puts things in primary clipboard; expected, proper, default behavior. if hit ctrl-shift-c, copies current selection clipboard clipboard. the bug, however, if highlight text after first time pressed ctrl-shift-c, you'll see highlighting copies both primary and clipboard. cannot figure out how stop xterm updating clipboard upon selection... , doesn't make sense me in first place. i said, @ specific point in time, copy selection clipboard... yet starts updating automatically upon selection after doing once... anyone have workaround...
