The paste_mode that I have attached should solve it.

The way it works for me is that if I drag the mouse cursor over
some text with left mouse button and then release the button
the spanned text gets marked with jed's mark_region (?)
function and I can use the middle mouse button to paste that
text. If you only want to copy/paste then holding down the
shift key before depressing the left mouse button and dragging
is probably more comfortable.
