.SH BUGS
On OS X, there are two snarf buffers: the Carbon snarf buffer
used by native OS X applications, and the X11 snarf buffer,
used by X11 applications.
Whenever new text is written to the Carbon snarf buffer, the OS X X11
implementation automatically copies that text to the X11 snarf buffer.
The reverse is not done automatically, arguably a bug in the X11 server.
To work around this,
.I putsnarf
writes to both the Carbon snarf buffer and the X11 snarf buffer.
To work around this bug in remote or non-Plan 9 X11 clients, run
.IR snarfer (1).
