I'd like to change the behavior of X Windows from copying when you select (highlight), ideally to copying when you press Control-C and pasting when you press Control-V. The man page for xterm has these lines as example *VT100*translations: #override \n\ ~Shift~Ctrl<Btn2Up>: insert-selection(PRIMARY, CUT_BUFFER0) \n\ Shift~Ctrl<Btn2Up>: insert-selection(CLIPBOARD, CUT_BUFFER1) \n\ ~Shift<BtnUp>: select-end(PRIMARY, CUT_BUFFER0) \n\ Shift<BtnUp>: select-end(CLIPBOARD, CUT_BUFFER1) which I added to ~/.Xdefaults. With that, I can't figure out how to copy. If I got that to work, I think I could change the left column to Ctrl-C... Any suggestion? Is that the right way to go?
