[dev] dwm: xclip problem

hi

i recently created a shell script called "pastexclip" which contains the text

xclip -o

and bound this in dwm to Alt+v

i have my DISPLAY exported to 127.0.0.1:0.0

after putting some text into the xclipboard via "xclip -i", i can run
the pastexclip command at the prompt and see text printed (i know i am
not using xclip incorrectly).

but when i use my dwm shortcut Alt+v, the text is printed not to the
current context in X, but the system console (i.e. i see it after
exiting X)

any help appreciated, thanks
brad
