Hi there,

I wanted to turn off the mouse selection / pasting feature of emacs.  I
tried putting  (mouse-sel-mode nil) in my .emacs file but that didn't work.
What am I doing wrong?



Cheers,

Peter

Does it help to set the variables interprogram-cut-function and 
interprogram-paste-function to nil?

No, it didn't.  What do those variables do?

Cheers,

Peter.

They enable the interaction between Emacs and the X selection machinery 
(or the clipboard if you are on Windows).
