>Summary: copy paste in dialog

Initial Comment:
In a dialog such as "Find" or "Save as", I cannot do
any copy/paste. Copy/paste works fine in the main
window. Entering text by hand in the dialog boxes also
works fine.


My system is

debian/etch amd64,
uname -a gives
Linux hyd9 2.6.17-2-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Sep 13 17:49:33
CEST 2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux

and I'm using the binary given on the website
(nedit-5.5-Linux-x86).

I installed the motifnls.deb package as well.



I do get an error message when starting nedit:
locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
X locale modifiers not supported, using default

but I think this refers to some other problem (I'm
using a german keyboard and in nedit my umlaut-keys
don't work)


Thanks for and hints.

Christian

Works fine here.  A couple things come to mind:

We need the output of nedit -V as certain versions of
LessTif are very broken with cut and paste.

Try turning off NumLock, ScrollLock, CapsLock as sometimes
these inhibit aceelerators for cut and paste.

As for middle-click paste, it usually works.  When you paste
via middle mouse click, you must NOT precede it with a left
click.  That left click erases the selection, and so when
you middle mouse click, you are pasting in the selection
which is nothing.

You should almost never need to paste anything into Find
anyway, use "Find Selection" (^H).

Hi yooden!

Thanks for the reply but this does not work either (neither
middle-click nor Ctrl-V)

Does the primary selection work (selecting some part of the
text and pasting it with middle-click)?

(For the record, German keys work fine on my Sarge.)
