Re: pasting ASCII text into lyx is not possible?! - Problem solved
... and past it with the middle button. This I can not do as I have set the middlebutton for close window. But it should nevertheless work with ctrl+v - but it does not. You might reconsider your choice of function for the middle button. The KDE/Gnome method of cutting and pasting between apps is the middle mouse button. Ctrl C, Ctrl X and Ctrl V work within apps on content moved within those apps, but I've found that between most apps you must use the middle button. That was the problem! Thank you very much! I now have disabled the System setting closeWindowOnMiddleClick and everything works as it should. Well, I think I can get used to alt+F4 again... By the way, try running klipper. Doing so often improves your cut and paste experience. Thanks for the tip. I am now just fine with the basic copy-paste function and have other tasks/problems to handle with - with lyx (I am going to post some more soon). Best wishes, Jörn

Alt+0 is MUCH easier for a touch typist, and I do a lot of closing windows.
