Hello,
Starting with the 20130726 snapshot, i have problems with the
clipboard.
Not the clipboard itself, but the capability to paste into the shell
in order to execute a command containing several lines (or several
commands).
% cat copypaste
/bin/cp \
./copypaste \
/tmp
% putclip < copypaste
% getclip
/bin/cp \
./copypaste \
/tmp
%
At this point, if i paste (middle button on my mouse) this text
(3 lines) inside a shell (can be tcsh or bash) in an xterm, sometimes
it works and the cp command is executed. But very often i get:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
%
./copypaste \
? /bin/cp \
?
/bin/cp: cannot create regular file `/bin/cp': File exists
%
% / t/mtp? m
/: No match.
% p
------------------------------------------------------------------------
After that, if i use a simple cat, enter a Return, then EOF, i get
------------------------------------------------------------------------
% cat
p mn/cp \
%
------------------------------------------------------------------------
If i paste the lines inside the vi editor, no problem.
If i paste only one line, or one line at a time, no problem.
I also tried with mintty (i'm not familiar with it). I get:
---------------------
% /bin/cp \
./copypaste \
? ? / t/mtpm
/bin/cp: accessing `t/mtpm': Not a directory
% p
---------------------
that is more or less the same.
I'm using XP SP3. I tried with CYGWIN=wincmdln set or not set, with
no change. Snapshot dated 20130723 is fine.
Regards,
Denis Excoffier.
