mcedit behavior under X



Hi,

The mcedit man-page has the following:

"In addition to that, Shift combined with arrows does text highlighting (if supported by the terminal): Ctrl-Ins copies to the file ~/.mc/cedit/cooledit.clip, Shift-Ins pastes from ~/.mc/cedit/cooledit.clip, Shift-Del cuts to ~/.mc/cedit/cooledit.clip, and Ctrl-Del deletes highlighted text. Mouse highlighting also works on some terminals."

That is true for me on a VT console, i.e. non-X. But under X Ctrl-Ins copies to the file ~/.mc/cedit/cooledit.clip but Shift-Ins *does not* paste from ~/.mc/cedit/cooledit.clip, but from the cliboard.

Can anyone verify that behavior? How would I make mcedit behave as it ought to?

Hugo
