Leading whitespace is not copied #63

Closed ilstam closed 1 year ago

Hello,

I have noticed that when using textern while composing an e-mail on gmail's web interface leading spaces of a line are not copied. I have tried other text fields in other websites and the spaces are copied just fine there. I tried with both gedit and gvim, but I guess this has nothing to do with the editor at all.

When I copy and paste text manually on the body of the e-mail the leading spaces are preserved.

So any chance the plugin's behavior could be easily fixed?

Thanks.

Thanks for the report. I can reproduce this as well. Will look into it.

This is still the case for me using Gmail... is there way to fix it at all?

Thanks for this amazing extension!
