I could try to work on this part of the upcoming Hacktoberfest, so if I'm able to fix it, I will send a PR only in October :stuck_out_tongue:

I wasn't able to replicate on 2.6.6 which is in Ubuntu's packages, so it seems to be a later regression. I'll try to replicate in master.

Can't replicate this on develop branch.

I can replicate it. Notepad properly handles the line separators but not more advanced IDE's:

That's weird. I have normal "\n" or 0x0a newlines.

Verified on my Win10 with Version 2.7.1 Revision: 5916a8f, but not on previous version.

This problem arrived with 2.7.x and the clipboard clearing countdown.
