A few releases ago… maybe 33 or 34, I was able to ‘Copy as HTML’ in a gnome terminal and paste this into, say, gmail or Thunderbird.
Lately, this doesn’t work … I see all the markup, like
<pre><span style="color:#4E9A06">[</span><span style="color:#3465A4">industrynumbers</span> <span style="color:#4E9A06">Desktop]</span> 😼 date

<span style="color:#4E9A06">[</span><span style="color:#3465A4">industrynumbers</span> <span style="color:#4E9A06">Desktop]</span> 😼
</pre>
I have to get around this by pasting into a temporary file like /tmp/temp.html
, open that document in libreoffice
, and then copy and paste into gmail.
Is there a setting I have that’s messing things up, or is there a simpler work-around to this problem?
