What's the difference between paste with middle mouse button and Shift+Ins?


essential oil

My middle mouse button pastes my highlighted text.

Shift+ InsText is also pasted, but sometimes with a middle-click, the pasted content differs from the pasted content.

What is the difference between pasting with the middle mouse button and Shift+ Ins? yes Shift+ Insaccess the same buffer Ctrl+ V?

(If using a Linux Mint distribution, what's the difference.)

SHIFT+INSPaste the contents of the clipboard as you can see here . It 's not the same as ( e.g. doesn't work in a graphic terminal, has to use or middle-click here).CTRL+VCTRL+VSHIFT+INS

When you select a piece of text it is loaded into a completely different buffer than the one above (another clipboard respectively), you can use it in a tty with the middle mouse button, even without Xorg it!

Ryran writes: highlight + middle clickThis is not a xorg thing. Many distributions also support it out of the box on virtual consoles (ttys). (For example, RedHat/Fedora requires a service called package+service to be gpminstalled and running .) That is, each highlight + middle clickclipboard is local to its tty (ie, you can't be between different virt consoles and/or X highlight and paste).

Summary : In Xorg you have two different clipboards. One is accessible via the keyboard and the other is accessible via the mouse.
