vim, gpm, linux console

[Murat D. Kadirov]

I have problem with copy/paste with mouse (gpm) in linux console (non X)
in Vim. E.g I attempt copy text from first console to second console where
runing vim. Text is not copied. Why?

vim --version
--skip--
*+mouse_gpm*
--skip--

Thanks,

Try holding down the Shift key when you copy and paste. That often works
when the normal way doesn't.

Are you running slack-12.0 or slack-12.1? The fix is:

set mouse-=a " disable mouse drag -> visual mode

if you mean different mouse drag operation from slack-11 -> slack-12.

But back then, Tom Newton did press that key himself. Now old age got
him...

Gee, I wonder who this is...

This newsgroups has more stupid punks on it per square meter than almost any
other newsgroup on the usenet.

And like all usenet vermin, they all have a dozen names they hide behind, with
their tails between their legs.

I guess I should state the obvious for the newbies: People who hide behind different names
are always accusing others of doing just that, in the same way that thieves are always
accusing others of trying to rip them off.

So, is this why you have "evolved" from posting by the name of "Alan
Connor", then changing to "Tom Newton", and now "Sidney Lambe"? I may
have left a few out, I'm not sure.

Another tip for the newbies: This dimwit is the most reviled piece of
shit on Usenet. For more info about him, see link in my sig block.

And there you have another statement that only a stupid punk
would make.

That's the thing about stupid punks: You hand them a shovel and
kick back and watch them dig their own graves.

I could obviously fool you any time I wanted to, simply by using
a different newsserver and a different name and a different
user-agent header, etc.

Anyone reading this who isn't a stupid punk knows that.

You mean like when you post from different names, such as "Alan Connor",
"Tom Newton", and now "Sidney Lambe"? You mean like that?

You're not fooling anyone, you ignorant fucking whack-job.
Bugger off back to the halfway house and get back on the medication.
