Re: PSPP-BUG: weird copy & paste

[John Darrington]

Thanks for the bug report.

The Cut-n-Paste behaviour of the sheet is less than perfect as you have 
discovered.

We are in the process of completely re-writing the sheet, which will fix this 
problem and a many others.

     Hi.?
     I'm post-coding open-ended questions directly on the PSPP data screen; 
however, the outcome has been quite frustrating so far.?
     I'm using PSPP 0.7.8 under Ubuntu 10.10 (I tried also under Fedora 16 with 
the same results)
     Find attached a sample *.sav file on which I'm having big problems while 
using ctrl-c ctrl-v to copy values from one cell to another. These are some odd 
behaviors I have suffered using the ctrl-c, ctrl-v sequence.?
     1. The value in a numeric column next to a string gets wiped off when I 
replace the value of the later .
     2. Some weird, apparently rand. om values appear in an active numeric cell 
as well as in the contiguous rows and columns
     3. Values in a numeric column were replaced by a sequence of numbers 
overwriting previous values.
     4. After copying values to a string cell the whole Ubuntu (or Fedora) 
system froze; I waited for 10 minutes then "unplugged" the machine.?
     
     These behaviour appeared consistently some 8 times after I used the ctrl-c 
& ctrl-v sequence.?
     
     Can't tell you more. Hope you can replicate my problem.?
