it is not pasting " and ' when pasting through xdotools. always losing them when pasting paths or something like that

rickyrockrat commented 4 years ago

Good question. Can you provide some examples? What version of parcellite? Please post your parcellite rc file.

somayn commented 4 years ago

sorry for not being more specific. it is linux mint 19.2/cinnamon. parcellite 1.2.1-2

the simpliest example would be to paste a quotation mark, which it does not when opening the menu and pasting it with enter. control-c control-v for quotation mark works normal.

I think this is fixed with commit 6da1c72. Please build it and see if it does.

I'm going to close this for now.

I built Parcellite from the latest version on GitHub (7b8b5d2) and now Parcellite just crashes/exits when I try to paste strings containing quotes from the history. Pasting strings without quotes works fine. Any idea what might be the issue?

rickyrockrat commented 2 years ago

That's awesome.:( I run the tip of parcellite every day. Can you please attach your rc file?

Are these double quotes or single? How are you pasting them? Is xdotool involved? These are pastes from parcellite via middle mouse, Ctrl-C, or using xdotool w/middle mouse ... running the latest build: 'Single Quoted String' "Double Quoted String"

you can run gdb on it to see what is causing the issue: gdb /usr/bin/parcellite run When it crashes, run backtrace (bt) on it and send that to me
