     11i managed to find another x problem: 
     12when you are in the *term and select some text all newlines are lost 
     13 and filled up with spaces. 
    1214 
    13 Does it help if you disable "Return does autoindent" from 
    14 Options -> General in the editor ?

     15i managed to find the problem in the 
     16editordraw.c in print_to_widget 
     17the hline draws blanks at the rest of the line.

    19 bug in a bugfix... 
    20 i noticed bad flicker in the console and realized that the setcolor  
    21 function does force a screen redraw. 
     19i understand that behaviour but there is a possibility to do this right: 
    2220 
    23 therefore i moved its call to edit.c init() 
     21SLtt_set_color (DEFAULT_COLOR_INDEX, NULL, "default", "default"); 
     22SLsmg_erase_eol(); 
     23or 
     24clrtoeol() 
    2425 
    25 now i get a green blinking _ in the console (no X) when i quit mc -  
    26 much less anoying than the flicker. 
     26however, i tryed to create that behaviour and failed because i  
     27cannot set the default color index (0) to blue/white. 
     28the problem is that users with other color settings (me:  
     29black/green) could be angy if i hardcode blue/white 
    2730 
    28 any suggestions how to fix that?

     31the default state is black/white - looks ugly but works.

    32 mhh i browsed this menu @savannah and found that there is a  
    33 difference between patch and bug and the bugs i submitted could have 
    34  been patches - sorry for the trouble that might have caused, will  
    35 use patches in future

     33if you could suggest how to properly set the fg/bg

     42Please, calm down. Finding a problem is the easy part - describing  
     43it properly, so that others can reproduce it, is of great importance 
     44 if you want to get the problem solved. 
     45 
     46From you bug report it is clear that you see some problem related  
     47the way copy/paste works in relation to the internal editor.  
     48However, I cannot understand what is actually wrong - please, do the 
     49 following: 
     50 
     511) explain what do you do - copy/paste from where to where ? 
     522) explain what happens 
     533) explain what do you expect to happen

     66i dont like the idea of changing the terminal just because a  
     67application misbehaves. my workarround for several years is to cat  
     68the current file - hopefully it's not a 60M log... 
     69 
     70therefore created a patch (that only works for slang and mc 4.6.1)  
     71that uses a clear eol function to perform the action of clearing the 
     72rest of the current line. 
     73selection works fine for me now, but the display flickers on  
     74movement - something i can handle 
     75 
     76@pavel: did you even read the post? the solution was in it - i hope  
     77in future we can improve understanding! 
     78 
     79to make it work as described i had to create a new function in  
     80color.c&h that resets the color index 0. if anything simmilar exists 
     81 please adopt the idea. 
     82 
     83i dont care if this ever ends up in the main tree - it would save me 
     84 the trouble of patching. once a year..

     95Is it so hard to write a proper bug report ? I want to reproduce the 
     96 problem myself and I couldn't - I failed because the lack of  
     97information. It is not correct to assume that everything has the  
     98same problem as you do. And how can I apply a patch if I do not  
     99understand what's going on. 
     100 
     101I am sure Oswald can explain the problem to me but after all it is  
     102up to the submitter to describe the bug it sees.
