Are you selecting the text first? Rio is very different from acme in the
way it treats mouse clicks. When you want to plumb something, you need
to select it, or at least left click on the respective word, before
using the middle click menu.
Similar thing with pasting: The text doesn't get inserted where you
opened the menu, but where the text cursor is.

The pointer changes to a question mark for a split second and then - nothing, it just returns to the prompt. Is this what should happen? If so what is happening when I select plumb from the menu rather than typing it as above?
