Hi Thomas, I see the opposite. In Debian 11 using vim/oldstable,now 2:8.2.2434-3+deb11u1 amd64 running in an xterm After :set mouse= I see that middle-mouse-button paste of number 123 does insert the characters 123 at the text cursor position. I can only achieve what you want by pressing the ':' key and then using middle-mouse-button to paste number 123 and then press enter key. This works the same with both :set mouse=a and :set mouse= I cant see any way to get the old behaviour you describe, if anyone knows how to achieve that then I'm interested to know, it never occurred to me that would work the way you describe.
