[Gambas-user] [Gambas Bug Tracker] Bug #972: TextArea Read-only Bug.

Sat Jul 30 19:21:56 CEST 2016

Pease do remember altetnate ways to copy, cut and paste like Ctrl-Insert (copy), Shift-Delete (cut), and Shift-Insert (paste). Been using those since the nineties in DOS with QB45 (QuickBASIC) and Edit.Com. They do also work at least under Ubuntu (been using them since 8.04).

I do not know if the OS sends messages to these effects; if it does it would make more se se to watch for these than to make specific filters.

Hope that helps,
zxMarce.
