Redirecting Output Into The Copy Buffer

[Jason Dusek]

Hi,

Most of the time, when I click the third mouse button something gets pasted 
wherever my cursor is. Presumably it gets pasted from some buffer somewhere, 
let's call it the X buffer or buffer X. Is there some way to redirect the output 
of a terminal command into the X buffer? Then I can run something like this:

   5 # dmesg > [wherever the X buffer is]

and then click the third button to drop the output into a mail message.
