Good point. I was probably off by one directory level, and didn't check my work carefully enough. How embarrassing! My thanks to you and Thomas for your help. > Perhaps you should try it out with TERM=screen-bce. Ah, good: I exited screen, re-enabled "defbce on" in /etc/screenrc, did "export TERM=screen-bce", started screen. Feh! Screen re-sets to TERM=screen. (I'm now adding "term screen-bce", to /etc/screenrc, to fix this prospectively.) Inside my screen session, did "export TERM=screen-bce" again. Started mutt, used the internal pager, and now X11 copy/paste from the internal pager works fine without spurious right-padded spaces. Cool. I do find it odd that the symptom showed up _only_ with mutt's internal pager, and not when using "less" in its place. But all's well that ends well. -- Cheers, There are only 10 types of people in this world -- Rick Moen those who understand binary arithmetic and those who don't. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
