Not that I know of. It could be easy enough to hack one up, given the
source for xcutsel, xclipboard; may even be a one-liner using Tk, but I
don't know Tk at all.  :(

On a similar note, does anyone know if it's possible to bind multiple
keypresses to a single keysym in X? I'd like to bind "qrmm; next<enter>"
to a single key to save my wrists when reading mail offline. I already
have "rmm;next" aliased, but that still leaves 3 keypresses where 1 could
do ;)
