Description Mojca Miklavec 2013-07-17 04:59:39 CEST 
When entering commands into "Session:" into Qt window, it would be very nice if one was able to copy-paste multiple lines of text at once.

At the moment it is not even possible to paste single lines with a trailing newline character (for example "/vis/drawVolume" errors out with "command not found" if the copied text included the newline).

I like copying single chunks of code (several lines) instead of storing those commands to a file first. This works in terminal mode when newline is equivalent of "return", but in Qt errors appear when trying to copy-paste multiple commands at once.

Ok, it works fine for tcsh because each "carriage return" trigger a new command. In Qt that is not the case for the moment, but we can do this.

Thank you very much for fixing this. Is it possible to see the patch, so that I can apply it myself locally until the next version of 9.6/10.0 gets released?
