*Text.translations: #override \n\<br>> ~Shift ~Ctrl ~Meta <Btn2Up>: insert-selection(CLIPBOARD, PRIMARY, CUT_BUFFER0)<br><br>Unfortunately I don't know where to place the Text.translations. I do not have the resources<br>file for e.g. xpdf.<br>I added it at the beginning of /etc/X11/xdm/Xresources but it did not help.<br><br>Could You give me an indication of where to put it.<br><br>Great thanks for help.<br><p>
