Hello:

I use openSUSE 12.2 with KDE 3.5.10. I am testing different KDE3 ftp clients, KFTP, KFTPGrabber, KuFTP. None of them let me paste the password for ftp login in their connections windows, which makes me think that this is a KDE3, not an applications 'issue'. As the password I have to type is something like "a8shgeyrtsd84befc" typing it in is not a solution. How can I enable pasting of passwords? This restriction is ridicolous. I don't want to use KDE password manager (KDE wallet?).

Thanks,

Istvan

Hello Istvan, 1st remark : I invite you to use konqueror as ftp client. It works very well for me (Oss 13.2, and did as well with Oss 12.2 previously used). Konqueror can eventually need Kwallet for passwords storage. 2nd remark: there are two clipboard, in some ways, in KDE3. The first almost always available with keyboard shortcuts ^ C ^ V, and the original Unix, a little arranged to be more usable than the original: "selection of words by mouse click" to copy, and click on the "central mouse button" to paste. The central mouse click can (was !!!) eventually be emulated, if the wheel is physically missing, with two simultaneous click on right AND left buttons. This simulation also helps preventing accidental "pasting" (in the text of your editor, for example) while you use the wheel to inspect the text. Note that if you use Klipper (a marvelous clipboard manager), your password, will be clearly readable once in the clipboard, whatever the method to copy it. I am not sure that the "life time" of the clipboard datas stored by Klipper are the same, depending of the way they have been copied. I hope that these remarks had been usefull.
