            Bug ID: 74247
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: EDITING: Request ability to configure text export used
                    when pasting plain text
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Windows (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
        Whiteboard: BSA
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.1.4.2 release
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

Problem description: When saving to CSV, I have the option to specify the
character set, the field delimiter, and the text delimiter, plus a few other
things.  I don't have any of these options when copying cells and pasting to
plain text (e.g. to PuTTY); it always uses tabs to separate cells.  For my
application, tabs are forbidden, and I must use spaces.  My workaround is to
paste to Vim, convert tabs to spaces, then copy and paste again to where I need
it.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Copy cells
2. Paste to an application expecting plain text, e.g. PuTTY
3. Cells are separated by tabs, no matter what you may have wanted

Current behavior:
Pasting to plain text always separates cells with tabs

Expected behavior:
Configuration dialog accessible somewhere in menus to change the delimiters in
the same manner as when saving to CSV.
Operating System: Windows 7
Version: 4.1.4.2 release
