Documentation
Whether to interface with the rect package or not.
Interfacing to the rect package means that the Copy and Paste operations will use the rectangle buffer when accessing the copied area. This means that you can insert a rectangle which is copied using the artist package and vice versa.
If this causes any problem for you (for example, if the implementation of the rectangle package changes), you can set this variable to nil, and the artist package will use its own copy buffer.
