User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.6) Gecko/20060728 Firefox/1.5.0.6 Build Identifier: A 'Paste Selection' keyboard shortcut which pastes the most recently selected text from the terminal Window. I know this can be done with a Copy followed by a Paste but it's something I do all the time -- a 'Paste Selection' shortcut halves the number keystrokes (this feature is in KDE's Konsole as Ctrl+Shift+Insert and I really miss it). BTW many thanks for Terminal and XFCE (I've just switched from KDE and really appreciate the simplicity and low overheads). Reproducible: Always
You are talking about the PRIMARY selection, i.e. the text that is currently selected?
