Sounds like "set mouse=a" is active. Do in a running vim :set mouse-=a and check whether you get better copy+paste behavior. If it helps, put set mouse-=a into your ~/.vimrc or globally into /usr/share/vim/vimrc. > If I'm using gvim, it's fine. Check ~/.gvimrc and /usr/share/vim/gvimrc for "set mouse". Maybe you find something better than my proposal. Have a nice day :) Thomas
