I have been using xterm in cygwin for some time. Recently I updated and it gave me a new different xterm. I have grown to like it, but there is one problem that was not there in the old version. Cut and paste works fine fine within the xterm using highlight for cut and the middle mouse button for paste. However it does not work in and out of xterm. If I use ^C to cut a section in a web page, I can not paste it into the xterm. Similarly I can not copy say a URL from the xterm into Firefox. What am I missing?
