(Seems much improved over the older RH8 version.) But how do I paste things? Clicking with first/third mouse buttons designate the string or area I want; it should be in the buffer. But the middle button (oR first&third) buttons don't paste. The right mouse button pops up small rectange with a "Paste" area, but this doesn't work. Thanks for some clues! gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
