[aclug-L] cut and paste (gpm)

[j m wagle <jmwagle@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What am I doing wrong??  Should I be able to 'cut' a line from a
file displayed in xterm and 'paste' in an email composition??

I have tried my mouse (microsoft 3 button /dev/cua0), using all the
buttons and it doesn't seem to work.  

I do use the 'alt c' (cut) and the 'alt v' (paste) key sequences in
mail compositions, but so far I haven't been able to transfer
portions from one xterm to another. I am using Redhat 5.2 with a
kernel I compiled (gpm 1.13-8 is installed).


thanks,
mike wagle, wichita
