cut and pasting between images

Has anyone else been having trouble with cut and pasting between
Squeak images in Linux?

I've been enduring this pain for about two years now.. It seems to be
a problem only in Linux, trying to paste text from one Squeak image to
another strips out various whitespace, including CR's, rendering the
pasted text very hard to read.

This problem *seemed* to have gotten fixed about 3 weeks ago, and I've
been so happy about that.

But now it seems to be broken again and I have no idea why.

Has anyone else encountered this problem or otherwise know what the solution is?

Thanks..
Chris

Re: cut and pasting between images

Maybe you could add your output of

$(SQUEAKVM) -version; lsb_release -a; uname -a

to the issue and confirm the bug and make it a child of bug 7480?

Alex

PS: $(SQUEAKVM) might be squeak, squeakvm or pharo(?) or ...

In reply to this post by Chris Muller-3

It seems like saying 'in Linux' is just not going to cut it any longer,
we have to remember to specify a distribution and version. If I recall
correctly I think you have mentioned using Ubuntu in before and this is
the case for Jerome as well. I'm a long time Debian (Unstable) user and
have never had this problem. I know many others use Squeak on Linux and
while yours and Jerome's reports may not be the only ones regarding this
issue, they don't seem to be the norm. Ultimately more information is
going to be necessary to track this down.
