I think it's likely that the unprocessed KeyRelease events are confusing
the X library. Adding ignore's for those seems to improve it:
*VT100*translations: #override \n\
Shift Ctrl <KeyPress> v:insert-selection(CLIPBOARD)\n\
Shift Ctrl <KeyRelease> v:ignore() \n\
Shift<Btn1Down>:select-start()\n\
Shift<Btn1Motion>:select-extend()\n\
Shift Ctrl <KeyPress> c:select-end(CLIPBOARD)\n\
Shift Ctrl <KeyRelease> c:ignore() \n\
<BtnUp>:ignore() \n
I see two different problematic scenarios:
1) select text
2) hit ctrl-shift-c without moving mouse
3) move the mouse and click somewhere so that no text is selected anymore
=> terminal does not respond anymore
1) select text
2) hit ctrl-shift-c without moving mouse
3) hit backspace until you start removing selected characters
=> contents of clipboard is cleared
However, the original wish
1) select text
2) hit ctrl-shift-c without moving mouse
3) hit ctrl-shift-v without moving mouse
seems to work. Is it possible to extend this wishlist bug to also
cover the first two cases? ;-)
yes (I'd like to get this to work properly - at least to fix xterm if
there's a fix or identify a problem in the X libraries, etc).
