nedit vs geany

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

I cannot make a copy (ctl C) paste (ctl V) from nedit to geany.

Is it normal?

Thanks.

I don't know since I don't use either of those.  But, are you using
wayland?  It might be that they are only compatible with the X
cut-paste buffer, and that the wayland interface is different enough
that they can't use its cut-paste buffer.

Also, have you tried using just the mouse to select text holding down
the left button, and pasting it using the middle button?

I guess it's not normal, unexpected at least. Here it works,
nedit/geany both ways and with X paste buffer as well. in CentOS 7.
Sorry, it's not Fedora but I see no valid reason why it should not work
for you.

For the record:
 nedit-5.7-1.el7.x86_64
 geany-1.31-3.el7.x86_64

Thanks for the feedback.
Actually, this behavior is partially documented on the internet.

My current option is to go through gedit

nedit-5.7-6.fc30.x86_64
geany-1.36-1.fc30.x86_64
gedit-3.32.2-1.fc30.x86_64
