[BETA] Problems with copying text from lister

[JanT]

When I copy some text in lister and past it in notepad or wordpad a character (mostly a space) is added at the and of the text.
It is very annoying because you have to erase every time this character.
I found it in all the three public betas.

Hello ! Welcome aboard !

• Not confirmed : when I paste the text, the cursor of the editor is just @ the last character, like it should…
- Neither a space or whatever in excess.
- You might make a screen shot and place it @ a reachable server or image-host

XP-Pro SP1 - 6.54 ß 3 public.

Kind regards,

JanT,
What mode in Lister do you use? 1 - text, 2 - binary, or some other mode?

Perhaps you could capture a short movie of how to reproduce the bug?

I just tried to reproduce with 6.54 Public beta3 without success.

Just tell how exactly do you copy and paste (step by step). Maybe there is something special in the way you do it.

Is that a utf-8 multi-language text?

I had some trouble when copying English & CJK mixed text in lister (UTF-8 only, unicode is fine). One workaround is simply select a larger part of text and delete the redundant letters when editing.

Hello !

- Like KevinMo points out, this could be a UTF-8 issue only.

- I tested again copying a part of a UTF-8 text-file (from the 7Zip soft) in F3. When I paste and save the test-file in an editor supporting UTF-8, I get an inopportune “¿” character in excess but at the head - the first character of the first line. Below that line like it looks in Lister (in Options, UTF-8 is detected and ticked alright) and then in the test-file :

¿;!@Lang@!UTF-8!

and following, like it should :

;!@Lang@!UTF-8!

Here is a screendump:

Left the lister with the selected text.
Right the notepad just after pasting, between the 'w' and the cursor is an extra space.
Lister is in option 1-text only.
Notepad is also in text mode.
The OS is Windows 98 SE dutch, but I think I have it also seen in Win2000 dutch.

Here another screendump:

Now a 'n' is added.

Still the question:
How do you copy, how do you paste?

Hello Stefan!

- In Lister, I copy using the lovely small RMB local-menu, then paste in TxtEdit by the same way…

Not confirmed.
Windows XP Pro Sp2. No Clipboard manager.

1. Create unicode file with some text.
2. Start lister with F3 and select some text and copy.
3. Paste to Notepad.

Used dropdown menu to copy, Ctrl+C and Ctrl+Ins no difference.
