One question regarding the middle mouse click functionality in urxvt. Am I correct that it pastes the primary selection? That's what appears to be the case from testing using xsel etc. The above issue I posted originally really perplexes me if that is in fact that case. The primary selection supplied by the sample GTK code I linked to can be pasted with the middle mouse in every terminal program I've tried (in fact every application of any sort that I've tried) except urxvt. Any clues as to why that would be? If I had some idea I might be able to find something on the GTK end that would correct it. Thanks.
