Selecting text then middle-clicking will paste the "primary selection" (i.e. the current text highlighted in the current application) [1]. I don't think there's a way to set up copying content to the clipboard without explicitly selecting "Copy" [2] A little more information about this and copy-pasting can be found at http://www.jwz.org/doc/x-cut-and-paste.html Hope this helps Don [1] If the application supports this. Most GNOME apps do. gnome-terminal does.
