Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/rivo/tview/issues/133

When pasting text into a InputField it only takes the first 11 chars of the copy-buffer.

Tested in OSX.

Was going to say the same. I'm closing this issue then.

in case anyone needs it, i leave a poor man fix, assuming the cursor is always at the end of the input text:

import (
	....

	"github.com/atotto/clipboard"
	"github.com/gdamore/tcell"
	"github.com/rivo/tview"
)

myinputfield.SetInputCapture(func(event *tcell.EventKey) *tcell.EventKey {
	switch event.Key() {
	case tcell.KeyCtrlV:
		// janky fix
		cb, err := clipboard.ReadAll()
		if err != nil {
			km.logger.Error().Msg("Couldn't get clipboard: " + err.Error())
			break
		}
		km.components.command.SetText(km.components.command.GetText() + cb)
	....
	}
}

This bug is such a smelly one in the middle of a rose garden. The fix makes your app dependent on xsel being installed, on linux. I am forking tcell and tview because I need this working before halley's comet returns.

https://github.com/rivo/tcell/commits/master the tcell tview uses now has been untouched in over a year, and this is literally one character change to fix, and said tcell library has no issues either.

It's a very very nice library and I'm forking it but who doesn't need to paste 16+ character long strings on a regular basis these days?

@l0k1verloren The repo you quoted is not the one tview depends on:

github.com/rivo/tview@cf9d115173/application.go (L6)

@gdamore still maintains tcell. It's probably better to direct any (constructive) feedback to the relevant issue for this: gdamore/tcell#200.
