Description

With the RDP protocol originating from Windows, the format of text clipboard contents is assumed to use Windows-style newline characters (CR+LF). Guacamole currently does not attempt to translate newline characters, sending the format used within the received clipboard stream. This means that applications running within RDP which only support Windows-style newlines, such as Notepad, fail to handle received clipboard data.

Applications which can handle both UNIX-style and Windows-style newline characters are unaffected.
