I use the clipboard in speakup to copy several things normally or did until earlier today. When copying an url I checked the contents of the clipboard since when I tried to paste things didn't work any longer. All that was in the clipboard was a series of slash characters with no intervening characters of any kind. I suppose that's useful for ascii art but it doesn't work here. I switched over to fenrirscreenreader and hope if it has a set of cut and paste functions for a clipboard these work better than is the case these days in speakup. I did the switch on slint and am wondering if debian's version of speakup also has this flaw in it.
