What GUI systems let you copy text with formatting preserved, via clipboard?
- by culebrón
If you select and copy a text from Internet Explorer and paste it in Miscrosoft Word, the formatting is preserved.
If you do that in Opera or Firefox in Windows, it's lost, IIRC. I use Gnome desktop in Linux, and formatting is preserved nowhere, which is very inconvenient. Even if desktop lets me copy formatted text, I can't post it into any web form: WISYWIG Javascript forms will strip formatting and make me walk through the whole text and fix it manually. I don't know how things are in Macs.
Is there a desktop + browser + editor set that allow passing formatted text consistently throughout?
