Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mousepad
Using Xubuntu 8.04.1 LTS amd64. (Also observed on 32-bit hardy and newer
versions of mousepad)
mousepad versions with bug: all the way up to 0.2.14-0ubuntu1 (tested on Hardy)
mousepad (Xfce default text editor) has, like any editor, Search>Replace
function
that opens mini-window with Two Boxes: `Find what` and `Replace with` and
`Match case` and `Replace all at once` options.
How to reproduce: Load an medium size text file with multiple repeating text
strings.
Start mousepad and activate Search>Replace function, enter string to find and
string to replace with.
Make shure `Replace all at once` option is selected.
Press `Find and Replace` button
Results:
Replace is done by not replacing string found in the text file, but adding new
string after
found string, thus not doing replace but find&add new string after.
Desired results:
Replace function in mousepad should actually replace strings it founds.
Current workaround:
Do not use mousepad. Use gedit or leafpad or nano editors instead until solved.
I think this is major bug to Xubuntu since, mousepad is default text
editor in this Ubuntu variant.
