Well, since I haven't received an answer yet (I know, it has only been a
day...) I thought I might clarify that I'd like to change the behavior of
the buttons in xterms:  the "paste" feature, which is bound to button 2, so
that I can paste with the rightbutton (currently button 3); and scroll bar
dragging, also bound to button 2.  So a viable solution would be either to
change the xterm button bindings or swap buttons 2 and 3 in the emulation.

Again, thanks for your input!
Have a good weekend,

Scott
