A silly Slashdot thread mentions an excellent X11 utility: xclip lets you use the X clipboard from the command line. The same thread mentions equivalent utilities for Windows XP ("clip") and Mac OS X ("pbcopy," comes with the OS?), as well as many others for X, and even a mention of "screen" buffers that I'll probably be able to use.
