Which version of MC are you using and on which distro. Some months ago Thomas reported a bug in the mouse handling code when "use_8th_bit_as_meta" is set in you configuration file ($HOME/.mc/ini). What you see might be a manifestation of this bug. It was fixed in CVS but you distro might be missing this particular patch. So first of all check whether you have set "use_8th_bit_as_meta" to 1 and change it to 0. If you still have a problem after that let us know. _______________________________________________ Mc mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
