[ jEdit-users ] Int'l keyboard problem

[Patrick W. <jed...@pd...>]

Hi

JEdit 4.2pre15, JDK 1.5.0b2, Win2K

Have run into a problem with a new keyboard I just purchased--as I am in
Germany now, it is a Microsoft KB with a german character layout. I am
using Windows 2000 so enabled the keyboard-mapping utility to indicate I
am using a german layout. That works fine.

The problem is that Copy/Paste no longer work--looks like, specifically,
Edit/Paste. I'm at another computer right now--but on paste I get a
toolkit beep, and the activity log says the drop target (for the clipboar=
d
operation) is an unsupported Unicode text.

My workaround is to copy to a register, but that is an extra 2 keystrokes
in each direction (though I can write a macro...)

Does this ring a bell? If not I can send along the activity log entry.
