What does this tell us?

It tells us that this needs further testing, because I just went into Ubuntu 10.04 with Rev 4.0 and MC 4.0 and was able to copy and paste scripts within each script editor, between them, and between each of them and GEdit.

I got curious, launched Ubuntu 10.04 with Rev 4.0.5dp3, and was able to copy/paste to GEdit. As others have reported, in GEdit the menu command for Paste was dimmed but the keyboard shortcut worked.

Sorry to have taken so long to reply; "ran away" to our villa in the country to pick apricots, peaches, plums and redcurrants; listen to the birds sing, and read Herodotus: most therapeutic!

I stand corrected; up to a point at least:

I have had no difficulty copy-pasting between scripts when I COULD select text; and I have now isolated the incidence when one CANNOT copy text from the Script editor (or at
least one incidence):

When Mozilla ThunderBird (my e-mail client) is running prior and during launching of RunRev I am unable to select text in the script editor; therefore unable to paste it anywhere.

I have not had that problem between Mozilla ThunderBird and RunRev 4 on the Mac.

Whether other apps interfere with copying from the script editor in runRev 4 in this way
has yet to be seen.

Obviously gEdit is 'at fault' insofar as one cannot paste with a right click drop-down menu, or
from the Edit menu of gEdit; only via Ctrl-V.
