Hi,

I have a Mac Book Pro OSX 10.8.5 with X11 (XQuartz 2.7.6) installed on it. I just noticed that the middle-button highlighted-text copy option I use quite frequently on X11 terminals suddenly stopped working. Copying with Alt_L + left click still works for highlighted text, though.

Can someone please help? Thanks!

X11 Preferences are currently set to the following:

Input:
Emulate three button mouse (enabled)
Follow system keyboard layout (disabled)
Enable key equivalents under X11 (enabled)
Option keys send Alt_L and Alt_R (disable)

Pasteboard:
Enable syncing (enabled)
Update Pasteboard when CLIPBOARD changes (enabled)
Update CLIPBOARD when Pasteboard changes (enabled)
Update PRIMARY (middle-click) when Pasteboard changes (enabled)
Update Pasteboard immediately when new text is selected (enabled)
