Summary 0002929: screen drops characters when pasteing in text into a session
Description I select a pile of text in another xterm or similar.
I goto an xterm or dtterm ( whatever ) with screen running in it and then paste the text into that screen session.

The screen session beeps wildly and drops data.

With regular vi I can paste in some text into a file and get a report that says

\"samba_3.2.0_install.log\" [New file] 593 lines, 38259 characters

If I try this with a screen session, I get piles of beeps and flashes and this :

\"install.log\" [New file] 334 lines, 22332 characters

The result is that the exact same text data pasted into a simple xterm works while screen drops data :

$ wc -l install.log
     334 install.log
$ wc -l samba_3.2.0_install.log
     593 samba_3.2.0_install.log

Could you send me the file you used so I can reproduce the bug in the same conditions ?
