Hi
I have a strange problem I cannot solve:
- I have two XTERMS open
- I run xterms run on either the same host or different hosts
- in both xterms I run emacs
- in both emacs I have the same source files open: bash or php or etc
- if I copy text in one emacs then paste it into the other emacs it ADDS
an extra line whenever a '#' is found
- its annoying
I have searched the Internet, I haven't found a solution yet.
I am in the midst creating a new mail server.
When I copy/paste between two different hosts both having emacs editing
a sendmail.mc file it does not happen.
It quite happily pastes into the new sendmail.mc without adding extra
lines as a comment in sendmail.mc is preceeded by a 'dnl'.
Anybody got any ideas how I can stop the PASTING emacs adding extra line
whenever a # is found?
Thanks
