I don't think its strange. I did it for a while. However, once I found iTerm,
I did this much less. It can emulate copy-on-select and paste on middle click,
and didn't have the Aqua copy/paste <-> X11 copy past issues I had with konsole
and (to a lesser degree) xterm. Just giving you additional options. After all,
why do someting one way, when you can do it 12? :)

In 1997 a group of programmers started writing a desktop environment to fix a
travesty they didn't create. Their program promptly found its way onto un*x
systems everywhere. Today, still opposed by a software monopolist, they survive
as soldiers of fortune. If you share their vision, if you know you can help,
and if you can connect to internet, maybe you can join... the K-Team.
