Yes, if Emacs has anything saved in the killring, it will take precedence over the middle click. There are several ways to fix this.
One is just to use text-based emacs (emacs -nw). It is nicer, in my opinion, and if you are using, say gnome-terminal, you can middle click and C-y seperately. If you want to use graphical emacs, there is a line that you can put into your .emacs file that says to talk to X about the clipboard. Unfortunately, I forgot what it is. (x-select-enable-clipboard, I think). Does anyone else know? -- Leonid Grinberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lgrinberg.org
