Hello Colin,
I am having a lot of fun with Sculpt, but I do wonder something about copy/paste. Whenever I copy a large portion of text, a subsequent paste only gives the first part. This is most noticeable within a VM, but I wonder, since the VM can move the clipboard to/from Sculpt, if a Sculpt clipboard size limit is coming into play? If so, can the clipboard be made bigger? Failing that, can I disable clipboard integration with the VM? Apologies if this was settled a long time ago.
I'm actually also struggling with the VBox clipboard integration currently. E.g., the X buffer sometimes delivers truncated or even completely botched content. Other times, the mechanism works perfectly. So I'm not yet able to pin-point the problem. Once I cured the symptom by killing the two '/usr/bin/VBoxClient --clipboard' processes and starting one instance manually. But that is of course just a hack. The trouble supposedly started after I updated my Xubuntu guest OS.
If you have further observations or even a way to reliably trigger the problem, I'd very much appreciate it.
BTW, if you set the 'verbose="yes"' attribute in the clipboard configuration in Sculpt's config fs, you can observe all copy operation that arrive at the global clipboard in the log.
I'm sorry that I don't have a cure for your problem right now. Let's keep an eye on this issue together.
Cheers Norman
