I thought it’d be a pain but installing programs through the terminal is actually so nice, I never would have expected it

    I don’t want to pasta with middle click. I want to scroll with middle click. I want to pasta with ctrl-v.

        Well, yes. But also that only addresses half my comment. I suppose it’s fair since my own comment only addressed half of the previous comment.

          Ah, I was so fixated on the “pasta” joke, you’re right, I missed the other thing! Yeah, I can understand you missing that auto scroll feature.

          From what I can tell, it doesn’t come as easily as it should natively across all applications, although it appears Firefox has this functionality built in. I found a forum post here from not too long ago. Does this help in your case? :)

          Edit:

          And here, some folks are discussing a scripty way to do it system-wide. YMMV it sounds like, and I’m honestly surprised this isn’t just a tick-box feature by now.

            That second link looks promising, it’s more recent than last time I looked into it. Thank you.

            Also, I’ve been doing the pasta joke for so long that I forget it’s a bit. “paste” gets autocorrected in my brain to be “pasta”.

      Then change the keyboard shortcuts of your terminal so that it does that. If you can’t, then switch to a terminal that lets you change the keyboard shortcuts.
