I run mc/mcedit always with the -d switch to deactivate mc's 
special mouse handling and get my X clipboard support (i.e. 
double-click to copy, middle button to paste) back.

another one from the "hey, i'm an x application" department.
when running under x, it should be possible to use the x clipboard 
instead of mc's "proprietary" clip file. there should also be an 
option to make it the default, at least for the cua keybindings 
(the ones with shift & ctrl and the cursor block). there is one 
problem with xterm, though ... it steals us the shift-ins key combo 
to do X PRIMARY selection pasting itself. so unless there is a way 
to convince xterm not to do this (or at least a way to hack around 
it), we have a problem.
