I'm having problems with pasting into an XTerm window. Neither the middle mouse button nor the key combo SHIFT+Insert pastes has an apparent effect in an XTerm window.
I can't tell if there is a problem in my environment (either an incomplete XFree86 installation or X configuration problem) or a bug in some piece of the X software. Here's what I know: 1. I CAN copy and paste in a RXVT window and in Emacs. 2. Copy and paste fails in an XTerm window. However, I can paste a selection from an XTerm window into an RXVT window or into Emacs. 3. My co-worker has an XFree86 environment on OS X 10.1 in which copying and pasting in an XTerm works. Using his xterm binary, my copy and paste still fails. 4. Other middle-mouse functions (clicking on scrollbars, control+btn2 for VT Functions Menu) work as expected in an XTerm. (5. One last, and possibly unrelated piece of data: twm (the window manager that comes with XFree86) fails with a segmentation fault. ) Is it possible that XTerm pasting has been disabled in some configuration file? Where would I look? Or better, what text can I put in what file to enable pasting? I've grepped through the resource files I know about and have found no reference any funny business with XTerm and Btn2Up or Insert. =================== Version info: I have installed XFree86 4.1.99.1 on Mac OS X version 10.1 (XDarwin 1.0a1). The command % xterm -v gives XFree86 4.0.3(156) ==================== Thanks, Steve Goldstein _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
