Hmm. I am not quite sure how to change the defaults without rebuilding xterm but when "appres XTerm" shows ... *VT100.font6: 10x20 XTerm*VT100.Translations: #override\n\ Shift Ctrl <KeyPress> v:insert-selection(CLIPBOARD)\n\ Shift<Btn1Down>:select-start()\n\ Shift<Btn1Motion>:select-extend()\n\ Shift Ctrl <KeyPress> c:select-end(CLIPBOARD)\n\ <BtnUp>:ignore() \n *ptyInitialErase: true ... steps 1 and 2 indeed seem to do what I asked. However, there's a side effect: after that it seems that the terminal ignores all keyboard input. This includes normal characters and also ctrl-shift-v that would be needed in step 3. (There's also the issue that one can't move the mouse between steps 1 or 2 but let's not worry about that yet.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
