If I copy text from XML Copy Editor to the clipboard (CTRL+C), and then exit the program, the clipboard is now empty.

This is very unexpected behaviour. The weird thing is that if the text was already on the clipboard, or was put there by some other app, it is not cleared when closing XML Copy Editor.

(using v1.1.0.6 on WinXP SP2)

Thanks Rob, I can confirm that I get the same behaviour. What's worse, the same thing happens in the Linux build.

I'm sorry I didn't get around to this bug in time for 1.1.0.7.

I'll try to fix it for 1.1.0.8.

Best,
Gerald

This bug occurs in the Linux build of 1.2.0.4. It's a wxWidgets bug, I've submitted a bug report upstream:
