I grabbed some text in your email, dragged it to the Desktop, then dragged the resulting clipping file to a Terminal window. The text I dragged out appeared in the terminal as if I had typed it. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.

I see- It took me a while to get the hang of how to select text for clipping from these apps. You are right. As for the new "features" of snow leopard clippings, I would rather that clippings could still be dragged to the Terminal and actually work there as directly dragged text does. Can the "rich text" features be turned off? If anyone has a workaround for dragging clippings with returns into the Terminal, I still be obliged.

Re: How to indicate NEW content in a timely manner?
Thanks to all for this. Looks like Ronald's and Brian's ideas combined will do the trick. Rob P.S. Sorry to have bothered the BBEdit list about this. I would have put it in the Web list but it's so that I assumed my question would just sit there unanswered. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.

I've mapped them to cmd-opt-up and cmd-opt-down. The line at the selection point or all lines that the current selection touches will be duplicated. The resulting selection will be the entire duplicated lines.
