- I use the following:
-
- XTerm*vt100.translations: #override\n\
- ~Shift <KeyPress> F23: set-scrollbar(toggle) \n\
- ~Shift <KeyPress> F27: scroll-back(100,page) \n\
- ~Shift <KeyPress> R13: scroll-forw(100,page) \n\
- ~Shift ~Meta <KeyPress> F29: scroll-back(1,page) \n\
- ~Shift ~Meta <KeyPress> F35: scroll-forw(1,page) \n\
- ~Shift Meta <KeyPress> F29: scroll-back(1,line) \n\
- ~Shift Meta <KeyPress> F35: scroll-forw(1,line) \n\
- <Key>L6: start-extend() select-end(PRIMARY, CLIPBOARD, CUT_BUFFER0)\n\
- <Key>L8: insert-selection(CLIPBOARD) \n\
- <Key>L10: start-extend() select-end(PRIMARY, CLIPBOARD, CUT_BUFFER0)\n
-
- Cut-Paste works nicely. You only must not move the pointer before hitting
- L6 key.
