Hi,

I am trying to re-do the DNS section for use with RPMs instead of tarball. I have just noticed that I can't correctly copy and paste the examples I have done using {{{ }}}. I assume these will be converted to <screen> tags eventually, maybe the problem will go away then.

For example, copying the /etc/named.conf options section from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/AdministrationGuide/Servers/DNSBI... appears as the following in vim:

options { directory "/etc/bind"; allow--­query {any;}; recursion no; pid--­file "/var/run/named/named.pid"; zone--­statistics yes; statistics-­f-ile "/etc/bind/named­stats.log"; };

It's fixed I just edited it and added the extra dash and it works fine?

Cheers,

Marc

Hi Marc,

Thanks for your help. I could not get it to work, when an extra dash is added (foo--bar) I end up with 3, for example, foo---bar. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, I'll have to look at it more. I was using kate to edit the content then copy it into the wiki, I noticed when I copied from kate into the wiki it added an extra dash, for example, copying "foo-bar" from kate appeared as "foo--bar" in the wiki.

I'm definitely doing something wrong here! I'll look at it more tomorrow, at the moment I'm wrestling with trying to use a package instead of the tarball. A few hours lately and I finally have it running :P

Cheers,

Murray.

There are double "-" characters, however these characters did not appear when I copied them from vim into here :( .

I'm seeing the same behavior. The original source in the markup seems correct, but if you copy from the edit window, you get the extra '-' when you paste into an editor that shows real ASCII, such as Vi or Emacs, one single additional '-' appears. The same occurs from the displayed page.

Looking at the HTML generated by Moin from the wiki markup, I don't "see" the additional '-'. But if I copy and paste from the Firefox view source window, the additional '-' appears. So it's there, as a hidden character.

Pasting from an editor that is not revealing all the ASCII in a plain text fashion might be the culprit.

As a test, I wrote a replacement text piece in Emacs, which shows all the characters when in 'text-mode', and the extra '-' disappeared. I am saving this new version in replacement of the other, you should find that it works when pasted into Vim.

So, blame Kate?

Hi Karsten,

Thanks for working that out for me, I'll start using something else for the wiki. I noticed there is a plug-in for jEdit that allows you to edit wiki pages, I might give that a go and see if the problem persists.

Thanks again!

Regards,

Murray.
