I have had this happen to me and it seems my mouse wheel is the source of trouble. The wheel is also the middle button which seems to have a paste function. When I use the wheel to scroll through a file there is a risk that turning the wheel also trips the middle button. One time, I pasted an e-mail reply several times into a large Python file. Sometimes, it can take weeks to discover the error. I've tried changing all my mice to ones without wheels, but they are too handy for scrolling and some software requires a wheel. I suppose I should figure out how to disable the wheel button function. -- Kirk Wallace http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ http://www.wallacecompany.com/E45/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
