That's essentially what happened.  I actually have a script that runs
at boot that opens all the terminals and sets some defaults for each
one.  I sometimes had to use all 16 terminals (a man/web/info page in
each one :-), so I just set a default in each one... Now that I use X
pretty much exclusively, I quit running the script.

It would only periodically paste a 'd' into the active window when I
hit either the right or middle button.  It almost never did it in the
situation where I could correct the mistake... it was always when the
'd' would be the most annoying (or so it seemed).
