I really like mintty.  However, even though it has the option to 'copy on
select' it requires a right click and paste to insert selected text into the
window.

Middle-click pastes by default, and you can change the right-click action to paste on the Mouse page of the options. In that case, the menu can still be reached via Shift+RightClick or the menu key (usually next to the right Ctrl key).


Well I guess it's time to trade my two-button mouse in for a new one. :-)


That's what I thought the "right-click action to paste" option on the Mouse page was for. When I tried it, I must have thought I set the option but hadn't. So when I tried to insert with a right click and the menu popped up, I thought it didn't work. Being more careful, I've verified that it, indeed, does works! Thanks!

May I express my sincere appreciation and a big THANK YOU to Andy and everyone else involved for your hard work and dedication in providing mintty.
