Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/rivo/tview/issues/1011

Hi,
When we copy/paste text from clipboard to a tview textfield, it is not pasted correctly.
Example, copying ABennani from clipboard can paste naniBAen but never ABennani:

Is there any configuration to fix that?

Regards

@rivo commented on GitHub (Jul 24, 2024):

This seems to be an issue with the terminal rather than with tview. I just tried this on macOS with iTerm2 and the Form demo:

No issues there. Same result with EnablePaste on or off. Is it turned on for you?

https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rivo/tview#Application.EnablePaste

What terminal are you using? Have you tried it with a different terminal? If so, are you seeing the same issue?
