If you actually want that behaviour (which breaks a bunch of progs that use ^v for other things), you can set it up for xterms by binding insert() to ^V using X resources. (This would only change text programs that run in the xterm.) Or, you could use xkeycaps to set up your keyboard to send an Insert keysym when you press control-v. -- #define X(x,y) x##y Peter Cordes ; e-mail: X([EMAIL PROTECTED] , ns.ca) "The gods confound the man who first found out how to distinguish the hours!
