Hello!

This is a strange effect which happens in a particular workflow...

In a cp437 encoded file I am creating I insert a set of words (for  
example: ALMOST EQUAL TO). I copied this text before in another  
application, UnicodeChecker Version 1.14 (47) from http://earthlingsoft.net 
, and then paste or yank it at the end of the line. Then I copy in  
this application another text (for example: E28899). This text should  
substitute another text, eight columns wide, which I therefore mark by  
dragging the mouse cursor over while I hold mouse-1 key pressed  
(actually via trackpad). When I now paste the last copied text (the  
second example) into this selection, it is not the last copied text  
but the last but one text (the first example).

When I undo this paste/yank action, then I am arrived at a situation  
when this selection of eight columns is deleted. When I repeat the  
paste/yank, again the the last but one text is inserted, not that  
which I copied before and not that which was inside these eight columns.

Is this the expected behaviour? On Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Tiger), PPC.
