Subject: epoch: get Sun Copy, paste keys to work

Well, I'd like to get the mouse and the function keys working.  Right now,
the mouse buttons don't work as they should (my definition of 'should' :).
The left button highlights (underlines) the text (this is fine), but then
the right button extends the highlight portion.  For the rest of my windows
it is the middle button that does this.  And then the middle button is the
one which inserts the copied region.  Strange...

OK, now to some specific questions which might help solve my problems.  Do
you know the function which is invoked for each of the mouse operations?
If so, I could use the proper functions to remap the Copy, Paste, and Cut
keys, since the mouse functions do some of the operations I'm looking for,
but I don't know what they are called...
