Hi, now that I had some time to experiment with wxmaxima, I found the 'configure/copy to clipboard on select' option, and it changes the situation a bit (why is this off by default???). Now wxmaxima puts the selection into the clipboard buffer, and middle click inserts the clipboard buffer. This is not how other applications work, though, they use the primary buffer for select-insert, and use the clipboard buffer for the ^C-^V clipboard.
