(global-set-key (kbd "C-c") 'kill-ring-save) My goal is be able to highlight regions with the mouse and use C-c to copy that region for pasting later somewhere else... It seems to be very flaky. It seems to *sometimes* work and sometimes not when I highlight a region with the mouse. In fact, I was trying to debug and it kept working in lots of different situations which was odd. cs
