I had to do some searching for corresponding configuration of the VIM .vimrc, and also use VIM compiled with clipboard enabled.Not sure what you mean by destroying format, but I can paste into emacs -nw with no problems by using a middle-click (kubuntu 8.04, still KDE 3.5, also in emacs -nw under an OS X terminal.app shell).Maybe the key is in the "where I want to paste it" part? When I do this, it inserts at cursor, not necessarily where I mouse-2'd.
That's because the terminal doesn't know where the mouse is. I don't understand how it possibly could, but the xt-mouse library apparently does exactly that -- try it out, it's included with Emacs. Also, `C-h v mouse-yank-at-point'. -- Kevin Rodgers Denver, Colorado, USA
