Subject: bug#23629: 25.0.94; Calc: Yanking with mouse-2 does not use X primary selection/clipboard
Date: Fri, 27 May 2016 13:17:31 +0200

I have customized 'select-enable-primary' to 't' and I'm using it to
paste the X primary selection with 'mouse-2' often. This invokes
mouse-yank-primary and that works fine.

It does not work well in calc, though. In calc mouse-2 is bound to
calc-yank, which takes the thing to be yanked from the kill-ring.

I think it would be appropriate to add a dedicated function
"calc-yank-mouse" which forwards the data obtained by
'gui-selection-value' to 'calc-yank'.

I'm not sure that 'gui-selection-value' is the correct function: What I
mean is 'a function which respects 'select-enable-primary' and
'select-enable-clipboard' and returns the right thing from the
corresponding X buffer'.

To reproduce:

1) emacs -Q
2) M-x calc
3) Select a number in some other X window (xterm for example) with the
   mouse
4) Go back to emacs *calc* buffer and press mouse-2.
