Wonderful!!! That is exactly the trick that I was looking for...
BTW, (I know it is now a meta-discussion...) what is the disadvantage to leaving VIM in ":set paste"? Thanks!!! -----Original Message----- From: John R Larsen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 01, 2004 10:42 AM To: Michael Rayle Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: cut/paste and mouse scrolling - Update VI on Linux is really VIM. In VIM if you use the command ":set paste" just before you paste in text from the paste buffer, then the text won't be tabbed incrementally. It gets pasted the way you expect it to be. Once you're done with the paste then use the command ":set nopaste" to return to normal VIM operation. I was frustrated by this same behavior for a very long time before I finally stumbled across the ":set paste" option.

I realized that I was using the 3.3.3 version of the viewer and tried the 4.0 version With RealVNC 4.0, I can use the mouse scroller. That's great! I do have a problem that has stuck around and I hope that someone help enlighten me on a solution.. When performing a copy/paste from Windows client to Linux server, the operation that I normally perform is: 1. mouse select text in Windows 2. press ctrl-c 3. switch to VNC window 4. open text file with VI 5. go to insert mode 6. press middle mouse button (scroll wheel) When VI is running in gnome-terminal, the text is not inserted. When VI is running in xterm, the text is inserted, BUT each line is indented by an incrementing number of tabs If the insert is performed into Xemacs, the text is inserted properly. I _really_ want to use VI in most cases to insert text from Windows. Is there a configuration option that makes it so that the extra tabs don't get inserted??? Thanks!!!
