[jira] [Commented] (GUACAMOLE-478) RDP clipboard uses incorrect newline characters

["Michael Jumper (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-478?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16317265#comment-16317265 ] 

Michael Jumper commented on GUACAMOLE-478:
------------------------------------------

I can confirm through testing that replacing all UNIX-style newlines within the clipboard with Windows-style newlines solves the problem with respect to the affected applications (Notepad), and that other applications which were not affected by this (applications which correctly handle the UNIX-style newlines) continue to work as expected with the Windows-style newlines.

I have not tested against XRDP, though if XRDP is to work with Windows RDP clients, it would have to handle this kind of translation internally, too.

> With the RDP protocol originating from Windows, the format of text clipboard contents is assumed to use Windows-style newline characters (CR+LF). Guacamole currently does not attempt to translate newline characters, sending the format used within the received clipboard stream. This means that applications running within RDP which only support Windows-style newlines, such as Notepad, fail to handle received clipboard data.
> Applications which can handle both UNIX-style and Windows-style newline characters are unaffected.
