No fuss and no mess :) :) And you are missing the point. There are two separate processes. One of them copy/pastes to the system wide copy/paste "buffer", is the same as EDIT/copy and EDIT/paste in most menus, and can be bound to keystrokes or either c-c and c-v or similar. The other is done by just highlighting text with the mouse. You are describing the 2nd process. I was showing you that the 2 processes are separate and different. The OP was claiming that the 2nd process no longer worked for him (but I'm unsure on what version of Fedora he is running), but that using the copy/paste commands (not mouse clicks) worked for him, but he wanted the mouse stiff to work for him again.... -- Kevin J.
