Public bug reported:
This is on a version of mudlet compiled on 64-bit Arch Linux from a git
snapshot 02-20-2014.
When trying to copy lines from the main buffer to a MiniConsole using
selectCurrentLine()
copy()
appendBuffer("windowname")
lines more than 81 characters long get truncated in the MiniConsole. The
truncation happens at word boundaries, as though for line wrapping. The
MiniConsole is set to wrap at 55 characters, and does. The main window wraps at
95 characters, also without issue.
Using selectString(line,1) instead of selectCurrentLine() shows the same
effect. Coloring the line, using fg(), colors the full line, indicating that
the issue is not with the selection being truncated. Both appendBuffer() and
paste() show truncated output, which suggest that it's copy() doing the
truncating; it's also possible that it's a problem affecting both of those
functions. I'm unaware of a way to query the contents of the clipboard from
within mudlet to check more directly.
