Cut/Paste X(tvtwm)<->Epoch?

I apologize for the FAQ'ishness of this post, please bear in mind
I'm basically X & Epoch/Emacs illiterate.

I'm running Epoch 3.2 with TVTWM.  I'm impressed with the cut and paste
within Epoch, but I cannot figure out how the cut and paste from the
standard X cut-and-paste (click-drag on tn3270 or a postit or
whatever) can be pasted into Epoch, and vice-versa.  

I have been able to rearrange my tvtwm mouse buttons to mesh with Epoch, 
but I cannot seem to reprogram the mouse under Epoch.  I've hacked
mouse-fncs.el and removed the old mouse-fncs.elc file.  Nothing works,
I get the same functionality regardless of how and where I butcher
code.  I figured that if I could move the PLAIN left and middle mouse
button functions then the standard cut-and-paste would work, but that doesn't
seem to be the answer.

Both the manual and Info seem to be comprehensive, but I'm unable to 
find any direct answer to my problems there.

If there is a FAQ anywhere, or a solution anywhere, PAH-LEEZ tell me
where, and I'll be forever grateful.

Also (while I'm here) is there a way to define in my .x11start or .emacs
where I want the minibuffer to go and where I want the first scratch 
window to go when I first start my X-session?

Much thanks in advance,

-Andrew
