FVWM: key binding for middle click behaviour

2006-03-28 Thread Reza Roboubi

Thank you very much for fvwm.

I was wondering if there is a command that simulates a
paste action(mouse middle click.)

Moreover, is there a way to do that from within the X server
itself? (if it's okay to ask on this list? :)

You want the xclip program to copy data into the primary buffer, and
then you want to use xse to simulate various events.  It's dead
useful.  I use it all the time.

I've been too honest with myself, I should have lied like everybody else.

xterm supports shift-insert, if that's any help (you can redefine it
with translation tables, if you like).

I use:

Key G A CM FakeClick press 2 release 2

It's very handy but it probably won't work for all applications.
Please see the fvwm man page for other important information.

The xte program from the Debian xautomation package works like a charm. 
 Thanks for your tip.

I'm not quite sure if this is for xterm or Xserver.  Quick googling
didn't clarify it.

Thanks.
