Mike Jumper closed GUACAMOLE-478.
---------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Line endings within the clipboard can now be automatically normalized for RDP
connections via the {{normalize-clipboard}} parameter, which renders as "Line
endings:" within the "Clipboard" section in the admin UI when editing an RDP
connection:
!guac-normalize-clipboard.png!
Possible values are:
* (blank) or {{preserve}} - Do not alter line endings within the clipboard
(default behavior)
* {{unix}} - Automatically transform line endings to Unix-style line endings
(LF).
* {{windows}} - Automatically transform line endings to Windows-style line
endings (CRLF).
If using RDP to connect to a Windows machine, you'll probably want to set this
parameter to {{windows}}. If connecting to a server running XRDP, you'll
probably want to set this to {{unix}}. For other RDP servers, the best choice
will likely vary.

> Reporter: Amarjeet Singh
> Assignee: Mike Jumper
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.4.0

>
> With the RDP protocol originating from Windows, the format of text clipboard
> contents is assumed to use Windows-style newline characters (CR+LF).
> Guacamole currently does not attempt to translate newline characters, sending
> the format used within the received clipboard stream. This means that
> applications running within RDP which only support Windows-style newlines,
> such as Notepad, fail to handle received clipboard data.
> Applications which can handle both UNIX-style and Windows-style newline
> characters are unaffected.
