Interesting. How do you do it? For all other apps, all you have to do is select the text and then center-click in the window where you want the selected text inserted. I've tried everything I can think of with evince, and it's not putting the selected text in any of the three X11 clipboards or buffers, so I'm stumped. -- Grant -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
