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

On my IcwWM setup, I use Alt+0 instead of Alt+F4 to close a window. Alt+0 is 
MUCH easier for a touch typist, and I do a lot of closing windows.
