Documentation

If non-nil, update PRIMARY window-system selection on text-mode frames.

On a text-mode terminal that supports setSelection command, if this variable is non-nil, Emacs will set the PRIMARY selection from the active region, according to select-active-regions. This is currently supported only on xterm.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 29.1.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 29.1.
