Is this discussion about the spaces at the end of a line being pasted
when you select in mutt and paste elsewhere? Because if it is, we had
this same discussion awhile back.
Eterm 0.8.9 and later has an option, enabled by default, which
prevents this behavior. Also, I believe John Davis posted a patch for
rxvt to fix this, although (IIRC) it had a small bug.
But it's your terminal, folks, not mutt. So this discussion is out of
place here.
