Re: how to copy & paste table as graphic

[Friedrich Beckmann]

I guess the different behaviour was introduced here:

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/pspp.git/commit/src/ui/gui/psppire-output-view.c?id=022faa5986fdeae5adb7be043e8a82e98db23098

to improve copy&paste with Openoffice. When I copy&paste a table on MacOS, then 
this results in text also in libreoffice.
