           Summary: KCHARMAP: Add control character (actually the needed
                    one is return) copy & paste (needed in certain extreme
                    circumstances)
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: rtguille at gmail.com


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.1) 
OS:                Linux

Feature Request:

In certain extreme circumstances, like losing keyboard due to bug/issue
(happened to me) and no ssh or any remote way of rebooting.

In these situation, my only choise was to use kcharmap with the mouse to save
debug info (could not, because i could not generate an "enter"), in fact
i cannot issue any command line without "enter".

I think that it is ok for normal situation.
Probably an "edit" "to clipboard with control character" option must be added.

I trully needed it a couple of times.


Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
open kcharmap, select with the mouse  "CARRIAGE RETURN (CR)", then double click
it, then press "copy to clipboard", then paste in konsole, nothing.

Actual Results:  
cannot generate a  "CARRIAGE RETURN (CR)" with the mouse & kcharmap

Expected Results:  
a way of doing it.

Running F15 Alpha, tried that time with F13.
