Description CrucialKrusader 2016-11-26 09:51:53 UTC 
## The Problem:

The iniablity of %aList to use 'new line' as a separator has lead to quirky workarounds when e.g. trying to copy the paths of of the currently selected files into a new-line-separated list in the clipboard.

See this thread in the krusader-users Google Groups mailing list for details and examples:

(krusader-users › Make 'copy names to clipboard' more versatile and more prominent (like in Total Commander))


## Expected behavior:

A new line sign can be used as separator in %aList, like in this example (\n stands for 'new line'):

%_Clipboard($(echo -e "%aList("Selected", "\n", "", "")%"))%


## Current behavior:

%aList does not allow to use 'new line' as separator.
