Reply to message «Bug in clipboard support with multibyte charactors?», sent 11:28:07 04 December 2010, Saturday by Yue Wu:
Let me guess: browser is Opera? I filed them a bug (DSK-318975) because first
after Opera moved to a new engine, pasting from vim got spoiled. After I
updated
vim to 7.3 pasting to vim got spoiled as well. Workaround: use `xclip'.
xclip -o | xclip -i
and things work fine again.
It will be good if you file this bug again at http://bugs.opera.com/wizard: as
bugtracker is not public, you should not have known that somebody reported it,
but posting a duplicate will make this bug have a bit higher priority.
