Hi, when i try to copy paste something with mouseclick into a gnome-terminal it displaces the pastet text. Its realy annoying. For example: Original in mozilla: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #include <curses.h> #include <signal.h> static void finish(int sig); int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int num = 0; /* initialize your non-curses data structures here */ (void) signal(SIGINT, finish); /* arrange interrupts to terminate */ (void) initscr(); /* initialize the curses library */ keypad(stdscr, TRUE); /* enable keyboard mapping */ (void) nonl(); /* tell curses not to do NL->CR/NL on output */ (void) cbreak(); /* take input chars one at a time, no wait for \n */ (void) echo(); /* echo input - in color */ if (has_colors()) { start_color(); /* * Simple color assignment, often all we need. Color pair 0 cannot * be redefined. This example uses the same value for the color * pair as for the foreground color, though of course that is not * necessary: */ init_pair(1, COLOR_RED, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(2, COLOR_GREEN, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(3, COLOR_YELLOW, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(4, COLOR_BLUE, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(5, COLOR_CYAN, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(6, COLOR_MAGENTA, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(7, COLOR_WHITE, COLOR_BLACK); } for (;;) { int c = getch(); /* refresh, accept single keystroke of input */ attrset(COLOR_PAIR(num % 8)); num++; /* process the command keystroke */ } finish(0); /* we're done */ } static void finish(int sig) { endwin(); /* do your non-curses wrapup here */ exit(0); } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After pasting into gnome-terminal: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #include <curses.h> #include <signal.h> static void finish(int sig); int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int num = 0; /* initialize your non-curses data structures here */ (void) signal(SIGINT, finish); /* arrange interrupts to terminate */ (void) initscr(); /* initialize the curses library */ keypad(stdscr, TRUE); /* enable keyboard mapping */ (void) nonl(); /* tell curses not to do NL->CR/NL on output */ (void) cbreak(); /* take input chars one at a time, no wait for \n */ (void) echo(); /* echo input - in color */ if (has_colors()) { start_color(); /* * Simple color assignment, often all we need. Color pair 0 cannot * be redefined. This example uses the same value for the color * pair as for the foreground color, though of course that is not * necessary: */ init_pair(1, COLOR_RED, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(2, COLOR_GREEN, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(3, COLOR_YELLOW, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(4, COLOR_BLUE, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(5, COLOR_CYAN, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(6, COLOR_MAGENTA, COLOR_BLACK); init_pair(7, COLOR_WHITE, COLOR_BLACK); } for (;;) { int c = getch(); /* refresh, accept single keystroke of input */ attrset(COLOR_PAIR(num % 8)); num++; /* process the command keystroke */ } finish(0); /* we're done */ } static void finish(int sig) { endwin(); /* do your non-curses wrapup here */ exit(0); } -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Copy text where some lines begin with tabs e.g. from mozilla 2.Paste text in gnome-terminal 3.

Right, so it keeps adding the tabs, this belongs upstream - we need to post up there when we can, or you can reporter.
in what app do you paste it ?

cause nano does it alright, but i'm no big man for the console editors, so i don't know much about that. Could it be vim/g-t specific ?
I can reproduce this in nano, here, so it's definitely not a vim-specific thing.
so what version of gnome-terminal are you guys using ?
and vte version as well (sorry forgot) ?
gnome-terminal-2.6.1 vte-0.11.11
I use vte-0.11.11 and gnome-terminal-2.6.1
Does this only happen in gnome-terminal? If not: Did you turn off auto-indent in your application? in vim type: <ESC> :set paste or <ESC> :set noai in nano (which i don't use) the help page says: M-I toggle auto-indent
this looks like the console editor doing auto-indenting on top of the tabs cut and pasted from the clipboard. i don't think its a gnome-terminal issue. works fine for me in both nano and vi which doesn't have auto-indent turned on.
