Yes, it does. No problem.

Ok. Thanks.
I saw that simply by highlighting the text I cannot "transpose" the copy in gambas application.

I saw if I have a text (e.g. "my text") in Gedit, and I copy it via ctrl+C or via Copy function of right button of the mouse, in Gambas console or TextArea I obtain this:

GTKTEXTBUFFERCONTENTS-0001^@^@^@N <text_view_markup>
 <tags>
 </tags>
<text>my text</text>
</text_view_markup>


But if I copy from LibreOffice (via ctrl+C or via Copy function of right button of the mouse) I obtain in Gambas application the "pure" text:

  my text


And more, if I copy a simple text from a web page, I obtain the entire HTML tag line where is the text. Every charapter is separated by the ASCII value of zero.
