Both. Vim was never installed until I needed to make this test, so no personal settings to change its defaults, whatever/wherever they are. Just thought need to test copy from raw Konsole to raw Konsole.....Nope, not definitive. Konsole thinks it's a bunch of commands to run, spews out lots of command not founds, but it looks like probably no extra characters. Maybe this is a clue? Pasting into Xterm it's as if I was pasting into a text editor - extra characters are absent.
I am a bit lost. I thought the original problem was that pasting in vim was indenting incorrectly, which is a well knownthings. By the way default vim settings does not mean "good settings", vim is well known for not having the best initial setting, mostly for historical reasons (see neovim in comparison). So what exactly is the issue we are discussing
I have no idea why David Rankin brought up vim. I wrote the OP, which does not contain the strings " vim " or " vi " in body or subject: https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/devels@trinitydesktop.org/message/G7AM4QYHT4RDUOR37NWKI3JNBAG24RQV/
