Right. The same happens with the DOS version of x-get-selection-value. > A C-y after such a mouse-2 won't insert the current w32 clipboard unless > it has changed since the mouse-2, because it's already been "consumed" > (put on w32 x-last-selected-text) Nor will the mouse-2 have put it on > the kill ring, so it won't be available via M-y either. This is because mouse-2 no longer calls `yank'. It's unrelated to the change I made, which was the minimal change to get mouse-2 back to Windows users. This is a temporary change; I intend to start a discussion about some of the fallout issues when the dust settles a bit. > What happens when you press mouse-2 twice in a row when it's inserted > from the w32 clipboard. What happens when you do that on X? What happens on X when you type C-y after mouse-2?
