#47 Line Paste Delay - not working?

[solarmon]

Hi,

I downloaded putty-nd v 7.13 (putty_nd7.13.zip) and I'm testing the Line Paste Delay feature.

However, it doesn't seem to work for me. Whatever value I set - for example 1000 - it doesn't seem to delay the pasting of the line.

I'm running it on an Windows Server 2012 R2 (as a VM) and remotely accessed with RDP, if that makes a difference. The SSH session is going to a CentOS 7.9 (as a VM).

What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

Just to provide more details, this is how I'm testing it.

I have the following text to paste:

echo 1; date
echo 2; date
echo 3; date
echo 4; date
echo 5; date
echo 6; date
echo 7; date
echo 8; date
echo 9; date
echo 10; date

So, if I set a 1000 ms line paste delay, I would expect the timestamps to come back with about a 1s difference between each one.

However, I'm getting back the following:

[root@host ~]# echo 1; date
1
Mon 26 Sep 12:53:55 BST 2022
[root@host ~]# echo 2; date
2
Mon 26 Sep 12:53:55 BST 2022
[root@host ~]# echo 3; date
3
Mon 26 Sep 12:53:55 BST 2022
[root@host ~]# echo 4; date

[root@host ~]# echo 5; date

[root@host ~]# echo 6; date

[root@host ~]# echo 7; date

Mon 26 Sep 12:53:55 BST 2022
[root@host ~]# echo 8; date

Mon 26 Sep 12:53:55 BST 2022
[root@host1 ~]# echo 9; date
9
Mon 26 Sep 12:53:56 BST 2022
[root@host ~]# echo 10; date
10
Mon 26 Sep 12:53:56 BST 2022

i.e. there was no delay at all between the lines.

Hello, sorry that I have very few memories about this feature. Would you please also provide the path to the config item?

[solarmon]

Hi,

Thank you for responding.

The config option is in the Terminal section, called "Line Paste Delay(ms)"

Thank you.

[Noodle]

Yeah, it comes back as in the attachment.

Hi.

Sorry, I don't understand what you are saying.

I can't download that link - it is blocked my browser security.

[Noodle]

I mean, it is fixed as the attachment.
Please try wget or curl.

Hi,

Actually, it looks like it is blocked by Sourceforge itself? The page I get back says:

Can you provide another link to download the fixed version so that I can test it?

[Noodle]

Pls try this one, https://github.com/noodle1983/private/blob/master/putty-nd.exe.bak?raw=true

Hi,

I was able to download and tried this new version and the line paste delay now seems to work as expected.

Thank you for fixing it! Will you be officially releasing a new version?

[Noodle]

Sure, in next version.
