Also, you are attempting to read from the XA_CLIPBOARD selection
rather than the XA_PRIMARY selection. If you actually want to read
from the XA_PRIMARY selection, then try the already defined
`Shift-Insert' keysym (I've noticed that the mouse cursor must be
inside the rxvt-unicode window for this to work though, which I think
is a bug in something).
