Hi Tom; Grabbed the snapshot and tried out the mouse buttons and fake keys. I tried F10 = command.focus;key.fake Down Return That used to work to repeat the previous command, but now does nothing. I tried Button-2 = key.fake <Control>C; command.focus;key.fake <Control>V But I get this error when selecting some output text and using button-2 (to act like a copy-n-paste to the command window. (emelfm2:5795): Gdk-WARNING **: losing last reference to undestroyed window And the output window seems to freeze. I saw you modified the code to have 'from' already setup. So something else must be missing. -- Adam Krolnik
