From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.5) Gecko/20011012 Description of problem: Pasting text from "nedit" (a GPL'ed graphical text editor, see http://wwww.nedit.org/) to gnome-terminal using the "X" method (hightlight the text, use the middle mouse button to paste) doesn't work. However, copying from gnome-terminal to nedit does work. X Copy/paste to and from gnome-terminal to any non-nedit X app works fine. X Copy/paste to and from nedit to any non-gnome-terminal X app works fine (including nxterm and xterm). Why do I believe the problem is with gnome-terminal and not with nedit? Because with RH71 (and all older versions) it was possible to X-paste into gnome-terminal from nedit. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.open nedit, type some text 2.highlight the text using the left mouse button 3.paste into an open gnome-terminal window using the middle mouse button Actual Results: nothing appears in the gnome-terminal window Expected Results: the highlighted text should appear Additional info: I've tried both v5.1.1 and v5.2 of nedit.
nedit doesn't support the i18n text that gnome-terminal is requesting. gnome-terminal needs the legacy STRING paste type added back for compat. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 54185 ***
