x11 - Middle click paste at cursor position in GUI programs -
in terminal applications (e.g. konsole) 1 can select text mouse. middle click pastes @ current cursor position. same happens when pasting shift+ctrl+v.
in gui text editors (e.g. kate) 1 can select text mouse. middle click pastes @ current mouse pointer position. pasting ctrl+v instead pastes @ current cursor position.
this difference in behaviour annoys me. i'd able paste @ cursor position @ times, in gui text editors (i use kate that's i'm concerned about).
can done in way? realize seems built-in x feature it's difficult work with.
i'm 1 of kate developers, , setting text cursor on middle mouse button click is design:
2737 case qt::midbutton: 2738 placecursor(e->pos()); 2739 2740 if (doc()->isreadwrite()) { 2741 qstring clipboard = qapplication::clipboard()->text(qclipboard::selection); 2742 m_view->paste(&clipboard); 2743 } if want different behavior, please vote existing wish, or better yet provide patch implements feature request.
