Sorry, it looks like a konsole bug. I used vim. In gvim and vim running in yakuake cut and paste from the source view to vim correctly produces the same output. In vim running in konsole, the paste is corrupted. [At the prompt type:] $ vim t1 [Inside of vim type:] :set paste i [paste from the source view] [Hit the ESC key] :wq [At the command prompt again] $ vim t2 [Inside of vim again] :set paste i [paste from the source view] [Hit the ESC key] :wq diff -u t1 t2 kdebase-4.3.0-1.fc11.i586 kdebase-libs-4.3.0-1.fc11.i586 vim-enhanced-7.2.148-1.fc11.i586 qt-4.5.2-2.fc11.i586
Still I can't reproduce it even in Konsole using Vim. I am going to close it some WORSFORME. If you find the way we can reproduce it, feel free to reopen this bug.
