Description Saurabh Asthana 2008-03-24 23:21:40 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.0.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

When I copy a bit of text with a trailing newline in konsole, it pastes WITHOUT the trailing newline (e.g. if I paste it into vi). There is no way for me to include the newline without also grabbing an extra character from the subsequent line.

This has been fixed in trunk.  Need to check whether the fix has been backported to KDE 4.0.x

copy paste problem sample

Some other things regarding this bug:
If I copy from the console a line that has to wrap and the last character
before wrapping point is a space character, the pasted line doesn't have the
space anymore.
My versions is:
kde4-konsole-4.0.3-17.3 under OpenSuse 10.2

Any news on this ? Can anyone still reproduce this bug with a recent KDE version? (4.1.3 / 4.2beta2 / 4.2svn) ?  Thanks :)

Comment 4 Jekyll Wu 2011-07-22 19:51:13 UTC

can't reproduce this problem with konsole 2.7.999.
Should it be closed now?
