IDEA: Highlight text to "copy", middle mouse to "paste"?

(1/3) > >>

kpetermn:
I was playing with Suse 9.3 + Kde desktop and a quick tip told me about highlighting text to copy it
and use the middle mouse button or wheel to paste.
 I never highlight text unless I am going to copy it so it saves a lot of time/fingers.
 Has anyone seen this for windows?
Thanks

So far nothing I've seen works exactly like this, which is exactly what I'd like also.

Skrommel, any chance pasting with a middle-click or scrollwheel-click could be an option for DragKing?

Actually if you have an MS mouse with IntelliMouse drivers installed you can set the buttons to do pretty much what you like already within the driver.

I would still want middle-click to act as middle-click except when text was highlighted, so that route wouldn't work for me.
