    I am trying to cut and paste large blocks of text between my mac and my parallels guest windows xp, but the text is being truncated at 64 kbytes in size. Is there anyway to increase this so that I can cut and paste larger amounts of text?

    Hello!

    The clipboard size is limited. Please use the "drag-n-drop" technology or Parallels Shared folders for transferring the large amounts of data and formatted text,

    Best regards,
    John

    That is unfortunate as it takes many more steps to move such data from a console window on the mac to excel under windows when I need to make a file to do so.

    Is there any way to allow the user to configure the size of the buffer for the clipboard syncronization?
