No, I don't see the problem anymore. I think this was fixed long ago, but I just
tested again to be sure. My instructions should also have said to bind [mouse-2]
to nil, I think.
IIRC, someone else reported a similar bug and that one was fixed, taking care of
this too. I'm not sure of that, but anyway, this is fixed.
Thx - Drew
