The paste problem with xemc is a legitimate problem that is fixed
(almost) in TkEmc. The highlight-dropping in TkEmc is probably due to
the default behavior when highlighting in the text widget. If anyone
does an Tk programming, perhaps they can look at the end of tkemc.tcl,
in the update function, and in genedit.tcl, where the cut/paste code is.
