Title:
"xclip -selection clipboard" does not paste to terminal
Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
I have a script which copies some things to clipboard via xclip. I
use the "-selection clipboard" option to allow me to paste the results
into apps with Ctrl-V keyboard shortcut. This works fine in GUI apps
such as gedit for example, but I can not paste the clipboard directly
into gnome-terminal.
Steps to reproduce:
In gnome-terminal run the following command:
echo testing123 | xclip -selection clipboard
attempt to paste clipboard back to terminal with Ctrl-Shift-V
Actual Results:
nothing is pasted
Expected results:
"testing123" is pasted onto the terminal command line
Reproducible: Always
The only way I can now paste my clipboard to gnome-terminal is to open
a GUI app, paste with Ctrl-V, select the text again, and copy to
clipboard again with Ctrl-C. After doing this, I can paste into
gnome-terminal with Ctrl-Shift-V.
I'm not exactly sure if this is an xclip or gnome-terminal issue, but
I've filed it under gnome-terminal for now.
Ubuntu 8.10
xclip 0.08-8
gnome-terminal 2.24.1.1-0ubuntu1
