2383.0. "quick Cut/paste problem with LSE " by AZUR::NAVARRO (ADG VBO X5161) Fri Mar 02 1990 10:10

  Hi,

  I read Decterm,Decwindow,lse,lsebug note files to find an answer to 
  following problem ,but without any real clear solution

When on Decterm using LSE and quick CUT/PASTE (Mb1,Mb3) feature , i selected
the following text

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
    BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
    CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
    DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
 
The resultant paste buffer (most of the time) looks like 

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
        BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
            CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
                DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
                  
                  
 I don't know if it is a problem with :
 
  LSE  ,bug or setup problem (wrap,indentation,left margin)
  DECTERM ,...setup of Decterm (display,general,keypad..) 

Does anyone a solution or a direction where to look for, or should 
cross this note in DECterm and LSE notefile ?
    
LSE V3.0-23 on VAXTPU X2.5 (i used LSE with Default character cell display )
VMS 5.3-1 Decwindow 5.3

Thanks for your Help

Jean

	It's probably that you have autoindent enabled. It does the same with my very own TPU section file. I would say it's a fact of life, and there is no bug anywhere. Think about the data being cut and pasted, and think about if you were entering it yourself. You would get the same result. Pierre.

2383.4	Autoindent was the culprit	AZUR::NAVARRO	ADG VBO X5161	`Thu Mar 08 1990 04:40`	20
	Pierre Re -1 > It's probably that you have autoindent enabled. It does the same with you got the point ,in my youth , i used to built my own lse section file and of course ,i put one line saying Ret_key ==> call autoindent I can now enjoy quick Cut and paste ,that's so good !!! Once more Thanks Jean Oh! VAX why so much hate ????
