Subject: How to stop marking and (over)writing into the yank buffer at scroll bar use
Date: Sat, 06 Mar 2010 23:35:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B92D8C6.4070706@t-online.de> (raw)

Hi all,

at use of the scroll bar, the text between becomes marked, leading to 
the yank buffer being (over)written.

At the same time, the text cursor jumps, apparenty to a position 
appropriate to the mouse position at the cursor.

I am using GNU Emacs 23.1.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.3)
of 2009-11-10 on crested, modified by Debian, and this happens already 
at an emptied ~/.emacs file.

I would rather expect the text cursor to stay unchanged until the mouse 
touches the text area again -- is there a way to achieve a such behaviour?

Thank you very much in advance,

Nick
