Description Shane O'Connor 2002-05-29 15:37:44 UTC 
Copy and paste using the mouse buttons in gnome-terminal is not functioning
correctly. If you highlight a block of text in one terminal and attempt to
copy and paste it using the middle mouse button in another terminal only
the very last line in the block of text is pasted.

This is the same if attempting to copy and paste text from terminal to
gedit.



To Recreate:
--------------
-start gnome-terminal
-vi a text file
-start a second gnome-terminal
-hightlight a block of text in first gnome-terminal 
-using middle mouse button paste block of text to second gnome-terminal
=> only very last line is pasted successfully.

This is same if you try to paste text from terminal to gedit.
