You need to: * Run the console app in an xterm. * Pipe the console output to a file and open it in some way in X. > Right mouse button pastes console to console but in KDE opens a drop-down > menu. Middle button is a *very* widely used 'paste' command. Why gpm had to be different I don't know... If you have a two button mouse then you probably set it to emulate three buttons when you set up X. In that case you can paste by pressing both buttons at once. But you still can not paste from a console, because they seem to use different buffers for copied text. > I'd like to have the right mouse button in KDE paste as well, with the > drop-down menu a response to both right_lift buttons being > simultaneously pressed. > > Where do I go to configure this? I don't recommend reconfiguring this. It is a well-accepted standard and you're better off getting used to it IMHO, YMMV. Either way it doesn't help with your problem.
