| I would encourage folks to play with those 10 lines of code in
|
|
| Text_Selection and report what works well for them. We may come up
|
|
| with 8 lines that work for everyone, or perhaps introduce yet another
|
|
| setting that lets folks choose between a few useful models. Of course,
|
|
| that's an admission of policy failure, but I'm willing to do that.
|
|
|
|
I actually think you're looking in the wrong place. I, at least,
|
|
have almost no problems with the choice of what gets pasted, or
|
|
selected, that stuff (for me, if perhaps not users of some gnome variant,
|
|
which appraently has been fixed anyway) all seems to work just fine.
|
|
|
|
The problem is that a button 1 click clears the selection (PRIMARY)
|
|
where it shouldn't - the previous selection should only be cleared
|
|
when there's something else to replace it (even if the highlighting
|
|
of what is selected is removed). Try this in any other ramdom
|
|
application (from xterm to netscape) and see how it works. There
|
|
normally is *no* (mouse based) way to actually clear the primary
|
|
selection (that is, set it to be a null string).
|
|
|
|
Then, because of the "if I get asked for the selection value, I will
|
|
find something" behaviour, if you click (intending to set the insert
|
|
point, the way most other GUI's operate), and then paste, because the
|
|
PRIMARY is clear, but exmh still owns the selection, because nothing
|
|
else has taken it, it does and finds some other ramdom stuff, from
|
|
either the clipboard or cut buffer, which tends to be something that was
|
|
deleted back in the ancient past, and pastes that.
|
|
|
|
That behaviour, to me anyway, is the real issue.
|
|
|
|
Once that gets fixed, we can switch back to operating the normal
|
|
"select stuff, click at new insert point, paste" mode of operation
|
|
that almost everyone expects to work (whether the "select stuff"
|
|
is somewhere in one of the exmh windows, or elsewhere).
|
|
|
|
kre
|
|
|
|
ps: this message is from my experience as a exmh user only, I've never
|
|
really understood enough about X and selections to go gazing at that
|
|
part of the code and see how it all really operates.
