   I notice that a fair portion of the time, when I use the middle
   button on the mouse to paste, it doesn't show up until I hit some
   keystroke. It hasn't been happening consistently enough to establish a
   real pattern, but it is very annoying.

I've seen this too, and I think only after I applied the 2 official
patches to Epoch 3.2.  I could be wrong about that, though.

This is running under OpenWindows 2.0 on a Sun SparcStation.

Since it only happens every so often, I just hit ^L when I don't see
the results of a paste operation immediately.
