 Pasting from system clipboard into tty emacs I-search minibuffer ends
 up in buffer instead
Date: Wed, 2 Mar 2016 22:31:48 -0800

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I'm running Emacs 25.0.92.1 on OS X 10.11.3 in tty mode (-nw) in either
Terminal.app or iTerm2. Often times I would copy some text from, say, a
web page, and search it in the current buffer with isearch-forward (C-s)
or isearch-backward (C-r) by pasting the copied text into the isearch
minibuffer with Cmd+V. This worked up till 24.5, but in 25.0.92.1 (I
haven't tested in other prereleases), Cmd+V won't paste the system
clipboard text into the minibuffer, but instead, straight into the
buffer at the point. Exact steps to reproduce:

1. emacs -Q -nw (which lands us in the *scratch* buffer);
2. Copy something onto system clipboard;
3. C-s to bring up the I-search: minibuffer;
4. Cmd+V to paste from system clipboard;

Expected behavior (24.5 and before):

System clipboard text lands in the I-search minibuffer.

Actual behavior:

System clipboard text lands in the *scratch* buffer, while the I-search
minibuffer remains empty.

Unfortunately his is rather disrupting to some of my workflows. Thanks
for your time.

	Could you please try and see if setting select-enable-clipboard
	to nil resolves your issue?  (I assume there may be some bug in
	the 'select code, but if anything, this setting could be used as
	a workaround.)

Sorry for the very late reply (for whatever I didn't get your reply, and only
realized there was a reply when I visited the bug tracker just now).

The answer is no, setting select-enable-clipboard to nil doesn't seem to change
the behavior, even in newly released 25.0.94.

Yes, I just tried latest master (abfe07a) which includes the fix in 869092c, and the bug is fixed. Since the fix already landed in the emacs-25 branch, I think we can close this.

Thanks for confirming.  I'm closing the bug.
