- <li>It can be used to transfer text between edit panes in a split view.
- <li>Holding down <b>Shift</b> while clicking the middle mouse button immediately duplicates all text between the caret position and the clicked location.
- <li>If there already is a selection when you start middle-dragging, the selection
- will be replaced with the region you marked with the mouse.</li>
- <li>Holding down <b>Control</b> while dragging the middle mouse button marks a
- rectangular area, and pastes it vertically at the caret location (or into the
- current selection).</li>
- </ul>
