Bug Description

I'm using latest liferea for edgy (1.0.23), with gtkhtml2 engine.

It would be nice if liferea allows to copy a selected piece of the text (feed).

Ctrl-C does not work and context menu doesn't have a copy option.

While it is true that the context menu has no copy option, pressing Ctrl-C allows to copy the text for me and paste it into another application.
Do you close liferea before pasting the selected text into another application?

With mozilla engine Crtl-C works fine. I'm using gtkhtml2 engine, IMHO it's better.

I confirm this after installing liferea-gtkhtml and selecting gtkhtml2 engine in the liferea Preferences. Thanks for the tip of using gtkhtml2.
Could you report the bug upstream here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=87005&atid=581684. Add a link here to the upstream bug report so we can keep track of the status.

Hey, could you see the status of the sourceforge bug report? I can't look to it, as it was marked as private. Who created it would be allowed to see it (and to unmark it as private).

Thanks

As liferea-gtkhtml engine has been deprecated (and is no longer shipped since Feisty) I'm closing this report.
