I feel your pain. The two ways I have found are AutoHotKey scripts,
which is a really hacky method, and True X-Mouse[1].

TXMouse is better in some ways, but there are still disadvantages:
1) middle click will not work for some things, like opening links in a
new tab in FF/SM
2) TXMouse brings in classic X Windows focus behaviour -
Focus follows mouse, and optional autoraise

Some people like that focus style. Personally, I hate it unless
I am using a tiling WM, which isn't avalible on Windows

Also, in Win7 the systray popup is disconnected from the taskbar,
so it is a real pain to use it with focus follows mouse.

Nice! Hope I will get some time to try this out.

Thanks

OT: Make Windows act like Debian and copy text just by marking it

2011-01-31 Thread Daniel Andersson

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a program that allows me to make Windows to act 
like as Debian and copy text just by marking it?


It would lessen the annoyance of switching to Windows :)

Hm I do have Parcellite installed. Among the first programs I install, 
so have forgotten how the clipboard works without it to be honest :)

Just select some text and it will be in your Klipper, at least works in KDE.

Select by dragging mouse over area you wish to copy.  Move mouse to where you 
want to paste the copy.  Click with the central mouse button.  Can be 
emulated on a 2 button mouse, but my co-ordination is not good enough.

ctrl+c - ctrl+v seems trivial.  But it can get majorly annoying!!

Oh, I knew about that, but it requires and extra click (wheel mouse 
button, crtl+c/p or right mouse button - copy/paste), I mean, is not 
the one step action I was -wrongly- having in mind O:-)

I use PuTTY to access Linux in Windows. It just works there.

 How does Debian copy text with just marking it? :-?

By way of the X Windows PRIMARY selection
Middle click then pastes the PRIMARY selection

JWZ breaks it down: http://www.jwz.org/doc/x-cut-and-paste.html

Oh I forgot to say that TXMouse does not implement a seperate
Primary selection - it just uses the clipboard, so ctrl-c overwrites
the selection and vice versa. Another annoyance.
