Subject: paste-hangs bug and cancel-paste feature request -

Two things:

Paste-hang:
With slowpaste turned on, if an input box is brought up during the
paste (with ^A: ^A' ^AA etc), the window hangs.

Paste-cancel:
It would be really nice if there was a way to cancel a paste in
progress.

Oops, thank you for the answers. It would make sense to mention 'unsetenv' in the 'setenv' chapter. Gruß, Georg

setenv DISPLAY doesn't work

Hallo! Assuming that I use the following .screenrc: setenv DISPLAY '' setenv FOO bar This should "clear" the environment variable DISPLAY and set the variable FOO to "bar". Unfortunately, only the latter works; DISPLAY still has its old value ":0.0" after starting screen: $ echo $DISPLAY :0.0 $ screen $ echo $DISPLAY :0.0 $ echo $FOO bar DISPLAY isn't set in any shell configuration files. Any ideas? Gruß, Georg
