Is the rat banished out of the frames when you try this paste? I've rebound b to be banishrel so I can paste more easily. Banish often puts the rat outside of the active xterm because the xterm doesn't like to draw the last line.
Short version, make sure the rat is inside the frame you're trying to paste into. Rob
PS: Talked about what browsers I'm using but forgot to mention the relevance to my problem: I select the text from those 2 browsers, and that's the text I'm trying to paste. Also I should add that middle clicking with the actual mouse works as it should, regardless of my splits.

Hello everyone. Talked to rpaisley on irc today and I finally decided to try and go totally mouseless. Took his suggestions and made a binding for :ratclick 2 so I can paste the text present on the clipboard. Problem is that whatever text I have selected in my clipboard, I can't get it to paste using :ratclick 2 (as binding or ran manually). This only happens if I have a split (I usually keep the screen split in 2, one for browsing and one for GNU screen). If I make the terminal window :only, the binding does what it should, simulates Mouse 2 and pastes the selected text. When split, nothing happens. I should mention that this happens only when in :vsplit, works fine with :hsplit, which makes matters even weirder. rpaisley suggested the possibility of little gremlins messing with my box :). I am really starting to agree with him, but I'd rather have a bug than fairy creatures roaming around in my box. Any ideas?
I am an UZBL user, but also trying out Vimperator starting today. This problem is present in both browsers, so I'm guessing it is Ratpoison's "fault".
Thanks
