I'm not sure whether this is a desktop environment question, but it seems like interaction of an application with the desktop.
I like middle click paste. It doesn't work fully in gedit. That is, I can select something in gedit and middle click paste it to another application window. I can select something in another application and middle click paste it to gedit. But I can't select in gedit and then middle click paste elsewhere in the same window.
I know, I know. The solution is to use a different editor (I'll mention that for many purposes I prefer emacs, at the risk of all the vim users immediately telling me there is something wrong with me :rolleyes: ).
Is there any way to modify gedit's behaviour so I can middle click paste from one place to another in it?
