Subject: xterm: text selection and the alternate screen buffer
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.3.96.980313002444.1038A-100000@canuck.gen.nz>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
Package: xbase
Version: 3.3.1-2
If one selects text using double/tripleclick in a program that uses xterm's
alternate screen buffer facility, the whitespace after the end of the line
is copied. This is not related to the copying (or not) of newlines - the
whitespace is included after the text and before the newline.
Relevant (I hope) package versions:
ncurses-base 1.9.9g-7
ncurses-bin 1.9.9g-7
ncurses-term 1.9.9g-7
ncurses3.0 1.9.9e-2
ncurses3.4 1.9.9g-7
ncurses3.4-dev 1.9.9g-7
xbase 3.3.1-2
xlib6 3.3.1-2
xlib6-altdev 3.3.1-2
xlib6g 3.3.1-2
xlib6g-dev 3.3.1-2
