I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 and have this bug in gnome-terminal as with running mc, so without it.

Due to this, copy-pasting text in terminator adds some garbage character before and after pasted text. This bug occurs on latest version (from bzr). Example: my_pasted_text becomes 0~my_paster_text1~ This occurs when using Terminator along with Midnight Commander. This is a well known bug that has been fixed already in Gnome Terminal. Apparently the bug has been fixed in VTE, and as a result on Gnome Terminal. See references below for details. To trigger the bug, see sequence below, copied from referenced bug report: 1) start gnome-terminal 2) start mc in that terminal 3) enter the Ctrl-o subshell 4) maximise the terminal (in terminator, this is same as doing for instance Ctrl-Z to maximize current sub-window) 5) leave the Ctrl-o subshell (i.e. return to the dir/file list) 6) copy some text (e.g. some "filename") 7) return back to the Ctrl-o subshell 8) paste the text References: - xterm bracketed paste mode http://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.html#Bracketed%20Paste%20Mode - original bug report on Midnight Commander http://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/3207 - Bug fix and patch on VTE https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=729533 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/terminator/+bug/1350334/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
