           Summary: copy / paste removes whitespace if it is the last
                    character of wrapping line
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: ralf lahn net


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

When copying a long wrapping line from a bash prompt and the last character is a whitespace then this whitespace gets removed.
In other words: when the konsole width is set to 80 and the character on column 80 is a whitespace it does not get copied.

How to reproduce:
Example on the bash prompt:

                                |COLUMN 80
# ... commands ... rm /tmp/file1 [eol]
/tmp/file2 ...

When doing a copy and paste into another terminal the result is:

# ... commands ... rm /tmp/file1/[eol]
tmp/file2 ...

So "rm /tmp/file1 /tmp/file2" becomes "rm /tmp/file1/tmp/file2" (and will fail).

This behaviour can be reproduced with any column width and with any destination application (konsole, kwrite, ...).
