I didn't know that one (smile), but only the 1st half works here; when I R-click in the OO file, there's no 'paste' option & using the 'paste' button on the toolbar gives "Requested clipboard format is not available". > Is visual mode even suppose to work for this purpose? > I don't think hitting 'v' and moving left and right > is supposed to dump the selected sections into the copy-paste buffer. I don't know what it's "supposed" to do, but till last Sunday it had been regularly doing a paste into OO after a copy w mouse or 'v'. I didn't update anything else at the same time which seems relevant: Gzip Java-config Pykde Hplip Gnuconfig Psmisc (that's why I mentioned Poppler, which I updated the previous week). >>> Can you copy and paste from (g)vim to another Konsole? >> Yes, no problem. >>> To any other application? >> Yes, to Leafpad, Kwrite, (Xfce) Terminal & Xterm. > So basically the problem is OO then.

Yes, at least from Konsole Terminal Leafpad: I mentioned the Most+Konsole workaround in my OP. > Perhaps it is a problem with encodings? I haven't changed those for a long time, certainly not last weekend. > HTH I'm certainly v grateful for your suggestions, but they don't get anywhere. I assume you don't use both Gvim & OO (7.2.303 & 3.1.1) or you could test it for yourself: can anyone else test this ? Does anyone else have useful thoughts ? If not, it looks like a bug to report. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
