It's not yanking we're talking about; it's "pasting". Pasting is relevant only when emacs is in console mode (I should probably have said something about that in the patch). When I say "pasting", I mean selecting some text in another application, then focusing _your console program in which Emacs is running_, and then pressing the middle mouse button (or shift+insert, or whatever). From emacs' point of view, "pasting" is indistinguishable from ordinary, albeit rapid, typing. That is why my patch is based on the time between calls to erc-send-current-line: I can't think of any other way to distinguish an accidental paste from ordinary typing. --0016e6d59d834ae8d904c2256d1d Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

By default, it has no effect. =C2=A0But when you enable it by setting= the
variable erc-accidental-paste-threshold-seconds to a numeric value, it
indeed prevents pasting of multi-line text.

If people ignore the variable, everything will work as it always has.=
Only by deliberately setting this variable will people see a change in
Emacs' behavior.

It's not yanking we're talking about; it's "pasting&= quot;. =C2=A0Pasting is
relevant only when emacs is in console mode (I should probably have
said something about that in the patch). =C2=A0When I say "pasting&quo= t;, I mean
selecting some text in another application, then focusing _your
console program in which Emacs is running_, and then pressing the
middle mouse button (or shift+insert, or whatever). =C2=A0From emacs' p= oint

typing. =C2=A0That is why my patch is based on the time between calls to erc-send-current-line: I can't think of any other way to distinguish an accidental paste from ordinary typing.
