I don't think this *can* be "fixed" in XTerm. As far as I know, XTerm handles selection and cut buffer semantics correctly. It's just that Mozilla pretends half of the space doesn't exist. (Screen has a similar bug.) Closing as inapplicable to xterm. --=20 G. Branden Robinson | Eternal vigilance is the price of Debian GNU/Linux | liberty.
