But this belongs to the 'insert' key on the keyboard. Cut&Paste with mouse is built in rxvt, double-click/triple-click to copy word/line to the clipboard, left click somewhere and following right-click to mark the whole area (and immediately copit to the clipboard) and to paste (or with the above entry in .inputrc) And while editing .inputrc, consider to add some more goodies: $ cat .inputrc # This file is read by the 'readline' library # (the library which bash uses for its command- # line editing facility) # Make Home work "\e[7~": beginning-of-line # Make End work "\e[8~": end-of-line # Make Delete work "\e[3~": delete-char # make Insert work "\e[2~": paste-from-clipboard Gerrit -- $ make signature make: *** No rule to make target `signature'.
