Hello, Fedora users,
I am working with gnome-terminal under Fedora 27. I want to be able to select text with the right click of a mouse, and to paste it immediately when pressing the left button (not the middle button). I am used to this with apps like putty, mRmoteNG and others apps.
There was a patch that can be applied to gnome-terminal source for Fedora 15, in the following link: https://github.com/jbholland/gnome-terminal-right-click
It is based on an Ubuntu patch: http://www.taika.org/~tomba/gnome-terminal/index.html
It does not apply on F27 as this is a different version. I tried to add the patch code manually but it did not work for me - I am not an expert at all about coding gnome apps.
Any ideas ?
Regards, Kevin

Are you wanting this change to be made to the package in Fedora or you want somebody to build it just for you? I can guarantee that it will not be put into the Fedora repos because that is non-standard behaviour on Linux.

That's a really old patch and it will probably need to be completely rewritten now.
