Where are you pasting to? I have just tried (a) copy and paste within
the same document and (b) copy and paste from one doc to a second
(both in TW) and it all works as it should.

However, I have just pasted from TW to Zap, and that has definitely
added a LF (chr 10) after the pasted text, but nothing before.

Same test from TW to Ovation Pro, same result, i.e. a LF added after
the pasted text.

RISC OS 5.18 and TechWriter 8.92. I think the core code is common
between EW and TW.
