Problem with Copy-and-Paste on Google Chrome in Ubuntu

Dear Pharo Manager,

I am a really newby in Pharo and I was trying to copy-and-paste a code in a Playground, but it didn't work. The original copy was in Google Chrome web page and I used Ubuntu OS. I solved my problem when I pasted to GEdit editor and I copied another time in GEdit. Finally, I pasted in Pharo Playground.

My objective is just report this issue.

Thank you so much!

Best regards,

Fabio Petrillo

Hi Fabio,

for the copy paste to work from Chrome, you need to start your Pharo with the --textenc utf8 command line option.

Yes, this is well known issue (with pending fix https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm/pull/80 ).

Also note that if you use pharo launcher you will have to modify the launch method.

Just curious why we should not default to that?

Because nobody integrated it yet (there's pending fix as I've linked earlier)

Re: Problem with Copy-and-Paste on Google Chrome in Ubuntu

I tried by changing in Ununtu's pharo-vm-x script and it indeed works nicely.

Now, where is one to change that?

I was looking in https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-ubuntu but didn't saw the pharo-vm-x thing in there.

Where is it or where is it generated?
