I'm wondering if this is a Unicode-related thing. No time to experiment
right now however.

If I had to guess I'd say that the clipboard contains CRs and LFs for each single line
break, and other software is interpreting this as 2 line breaks. Setting the clipboard
data ["text"] *decodes* it so to speak. When I copy code and paste it into my
email program (Apple Mail) it does the double line thing, but if I paste it first into a
text only editor then copy/paste it into my mail program it's fine. That tells me that
the text editor is handling the cr/lf condition like you would expect, and Apple Mail
isn't.

Excel doesn't like the line endings that Livecode puts into the
clipboardData["text"] and renders the lines as if they were double spaced.
I have asked once before what magic wand to wave to fix the problem, but I
forgot the answer and googling was entirely unsuccessful (although I found that
there are lots of articles about the strangeness of the Excel clipboard). Can
someone remind me?
