Description Liam Roche 2010-06-24 14:39:44 UTC 
In previous versions of Gnumeric, I had no problems pasting CSV files copied from the Oanda.com transaction summary page into Gnumeric. Now pasting such a copied file into Gnumeric 1.10.5 crashes the software.

I believe the problem is with PC style CR+LF between the lines, as when I use notepad as an intermediary, I believe that the CR+LFs are replaced by CRs (I think), and after this, the copied file pastes into Gnumeric exactly as it did in previous versions.

Solution: please modify Gnumeric so that it can cope with lines in a copied CSV file being delimited either by CR or CR+LF or LF (or whatever).

I just tested the importing of CR-LF data and it seems to work just
fine.  We do support CR, LF, and CR-LF already.

But the crash is still there.  That's bug 617801.
