copy paste problems

spoody_goon · 02-15-2004, 06:36 PM

I have been having some problems with my program editor. When I copy and paste from on document to another I get code being rearranged, not where I put it. This seems to happen more when the programs exceed 700 lines.
At first I thought my problem was kwrite, but I am still having problems with quanta and gedit.
I am using Mandrake with a Gnome desktop 2.4 kernel and gftp for file transfers from and to the internet. I don't know where to start trouble shooting this problem.
Thanks

Am I the only one who has problems with the clipboard? Hmmmm, it must be something I am doing wrong.

try EVIM.

I will thank you. Because the problem is with many programs (kwrite, gedit, quanta) I wonder if the problem is some thing else. But I will try out EVIM.
