Description Michael Gilbert 2007-12-17 01:55:14 UTC 
i know that epiphany-webkit is rather new, undergoing rapid development, and 
a lot of features do not yet work.  i am going to post the issues that i have 
run into so far so that you have a record on what works and what does not.
hopefully this will help you to track issues and improve the software faster.

the first issue is that copy and paste do not work in the browser frame.
ctrl-c, ctrl-v, ctrl-x, and middle-click do not work.  also, the right-click 
menu is completely missing (which may be a separate problem altogether).

note copy/paste works just fine in the address bar and other parts
of the epiphany-webkit application window.  only the main browser frame 
has the problem.

this is debian bug #452759 (http://bugs.debian.org/452759).

Thanks for the report! Usually one bug per issue is better though :)

Yes, both things are known issues, and we are working on them. Clipboard actions should be supported RSN (we are working on implementing the needed API in WebKit/GTK).

Hi,
cut/copy/paste have been fixed in the latest SVN revision.
Comment 3 Xan Lopez 2007-12-25 14:03:15 UTC 
Yep, forgot about the bug! :)

Closing.
