I just tested a fresh install on a fresh virtual machine (Linux Mint 17.2
KDE, which is a great Leo test environment). Booted into the Live ISO and
didn't download or install anything except for Leo from github.
Leo 5.1-final, build 20151122092056, Sun Nov 22 09:20:56 CST 2015
Not running from a git repo
Python 2.7.6, PyQt version 4.8.6
*My changes are working*. My understanding of the desired behavior was that
when text was highlighted that if a paste was executed that the cursor
would stay either at the beginning or end of the pasted string following a
paste corresponding to where the where the cursor was in the original
selection. In cases where no text is selected/highlighted the cursor always
goes to the end of the pasted string. That was my understanding and what I
implemented.
If you would like a *second* setting in which the cursor always stays at
the beginning of the pasted string whether text was previously selected or
not I can also implement that but it will not be default behavior.
