Either I really fumble-fingered the stuff (very possible), or it isn't exactly the same. After changing "'t" to "t" I've found that it works. Perhaps I should change it back to "'t" to see if, indeed, it causes it to not work the way I need it to. I don't know. I _do_ know that with: > (setq select-active-regions nil) > (setq mouse-drag-copy-region t) > (setq x-select-enable-primary t) > (setq x-select-enable-clipboard nil) > (global-set-key [mouse-2] 'mouse-yank-at-click) all my pasting works the way it should. I know this: * I highlighted and pasted into this email (mouse-2) (I later cut and pasted-as-quotation) * I highlighted and clicked button 2 and pasted in emacs * I highlighted and yanked (Ctl-Y) in emacs That's what I needed! Thank you all. Regards, Bruce
