Hi Sam,

this is more a note to myself that I don't completely understand
what is going on rather than a solution, but here is what happens
for me:

If I highlight some text with the mouse and then choose "paste
clipboard text as pgn game", it appears correctly (i.e., only
once). But if I happen to be running gnome, highlight some text
and copy it (with Shift-Ctrl-C from my terminal window or so),
and then choose "paste...", it appears twice. Even funnier, if
I then highlight some other text and choose "paste..." again,
I get both the old text and the new text.

So I guess it's some weird interplay between the traditional
X way of highlight-and-pasta and the gnome's form of copy-and-paste.
Anyway, I'll see if I can find the cause.

Peter
