Aterm cut-and-paste was Re: Rid of those Windows Desktops!

I was searching for a way to cut-and-paste but couldn't find any
documentation on how to do it with Aterm. I think I got frustrated and
just started clicking and when I hit the scroll button it worked!! The
only changes I've made are /etc/X11/xorg.conf changes to get my Z-axis
button working:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
I can't tell you if it's only a 5.3 or an Xorg thing or something else
but I have used it on two different machines running 5.3-BETA6 or newer.
I don't have an older version of FreeBSD running so I can't try it
anywhere else, I would be interested to know though.

Cool, how did you get it to work? Is it only available with 5.3?
