Description Ben LaHaise 2003-04-09 13:37:02 EDT

Selecting text in an xterm and then attempting to paste via ctrl-V fails.  The
same selection is pasted fine via a middle mouse button click.

Comment 1 Christopher Blizzard 2003-09-03 12:02:41 EDT

I'm pretty sure that ctrl-v doesn't pull from the primary clipboard, which is
where xterm puts all of its stuff.
