Subject: copy and paste doesn't work properly between other applications	and emacs
Date: Fri, 15 Dec 2006 11:02:57 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1166198577.12686.9.camel@localhost> (raw)

emacs/os version: 
GNU Emacs 21.4.1 (i386-redhat-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
of 2005-05-18 on decompose.build.redhat.com

(maybe this is more of a feature than a bug)
feature description: When highlighted, text selections from mozilla or
gedit can be pasted by pressing the middle mouse button in each other
but not in emacs.  Also the ctrl-c or ctrl-x copy and cut commands work
in those but not in emacs (with the ctrl-v for paste).

I suspect that you are aware of this.  With the open source code why
can't the way this is done in gedit for example be looked up and
implemented in emacs?
