Use the middle mouse button to paste the current selection. Perhaps I sometimes forget that this is a very common mechanism in X to copy & paste because so many people are used to the ctrl-c,x,v way of doing things now. Sometimes you need to use shift too. The improved copy and paste refers to "extended ASCII" -- before international characters could be pasted into something completely different but now they are usually translated to and from UTF-8.
