That'd require some memory digging. :-( As I recall, the issue is that if a user is copying bits from here and there with the end character being a blank then that blank is wanted else the bits wouldn't be concatenated together properly. There's no way of knowing which one is the last copy - only the paste knows that and, of course, that isn't even true because, after a paste, the user may append even more to the clipboard. -- I believe the Bible to be the very Word of God: http://Mielke.cc/bible/ Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | WebHome: http://Mielke.cc/ EMail: [email protected] | Ottawa, Ontario | Twitter: @Dave_Mielke Phone: +1 613 726 0014 | Canada K2A 1H7 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://mielke.cc/xmother.html (Letter from a Feminist ex-Mother) _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
