"Bear" is a good word there :-) That has bitten me so many times that I feel mauled. Is there any way to get rid of that behavior? There must be, since it doesn't happen in nedit, e.g. (but I have no consistent success copying and pasting between nedit and other things). [The reason I would like to not have merely highlighting a thing cause it to be put into the copy buffer is that my normal (and habitual, instinctive, after many years of doing it this way) practice is to highlight one text, press ctrl-c (or alt-c), then go to the text that I want to replace with that text, highlight it, and press ctrl-v (or alt-v), to paste the good text in where the bad text was. ] Cheers!
