I suspect a bug in doSelectionFormat() in button.c that makes xterm
think that there was a bracketed paste, whose consequence is to
generate the "ESC [ 2 0 1 ~ .".
If I remove
#if OPT_READLINE
mydata->paste_brackets = screen->paste_brackets;
SCREEN_FLAG_unset(screen, paste_brackets);
#endif
then I no longer get the "\33[201~". There's another issue, but
that's a start.
In any case, exec-formatted has nothing to do with paste (brackected
or not). So, I don't understand the contents of doSelectionFormat.
