IB2017’s issue has since been reported as RT #127120. The cause is that the global <<PasteSelection>> (using middle-click to paste currently selected text) event in older versions of Tcl/Tk (prior to 8.5.16 and 8.6.1) is incorrectly bound to the right mouse button. While the responsible code is in Tcl/Tk itself (not Tcl::pTk), it can effectively be patched at runtime, so a future Tcl::pTk version will likely do this automatically if an affected Tk version is detected.
Update: Tcl::pTk 0.95 includes the runtime patch for older Tcl/Tk.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
