On the version of nedit that comes with F7, using the mouse scroll wheel

By the way, I posted a fix for this problem:

Maybe file the same patch at bugzilla.redhat.com? Refer to the upstream
bug in your report.
I filed a bug on that.
Though I was really interested in whether anyone was aware of some
reason that the clipboard is behaving oddly when interacting with a
Motif application (I have another Motif application that also exhibits
problems with cut/paste on F7).
I did a little experiment between the two systems
Compiled and run Displayed Result
FC4 Openmotif FC4 works
FC4 Openmotif F7 crashes
F7 Lesstif FC4 crashes
F7 Lesstif F7 works, but occasional clipboard lock
F7 Openmotif FC4 works
F7 Openmotif F7 crashes
The results are similar with both Motif applications I tried, so I don't
think this is something in the application. There appears to be
something that has changed in the clipboard handling between FC4 and F7,
when interacting with a Motif application. It appears Lesstif
implemented a fix for this, but the fix is not backward compatible with
the FC4 X server. And something is still flakey with the fix, since I
get the occasional clipboard lock.
At least, that is my completely casual conclusion from a very limited
test ;) Just wondering if others could shed some additional light on it.
