The windows code is cake.  Bash/readline code is heinous.

Anyone craw through that code before who could save me some time figuring it
out?

Yes.  Certainly.  It will require a knowledge of Windows and bash, of
course.  If you come up with a patch, you should definitely submit this
to the bash maintainer.

Excellent!  

It works with the stock Cygwin 1.0 included bash, GNU bash, version
2.03.0(2)-release (i686-pc-cygwin) too.

Thanks,
Kevin

from my .inputrc:

"\C-p": paste-from-clipboard

guess what hitting ctrl-p on the command-line does. . .  i do use bash
2.04b2, so that may make a difference.

I don't know if he cured the keyboard paste you want, but you might want
to
check out Paul Sokolovsky's Readline-2.0 native Mingw port at
http://www.is.lg.ua/~paul/devel/readline/ .

It works for me also with 2.02.1 as you can see below:

vzell:/tmp> cat /users/vzell/.inputrc | grep clip
#"\e[2~":paste-from-clipboard
#"shift insert": paste-from-clipboard
vzell:/tmp> bash --help
GNU bash, version 2.02.1(2)-release-(i586-pc-cygwin32)



Ciao

keyboard paste from clipboard into bash

[Kevin Schnitzius]

Is there a way to do this?

When I have my hands on the keyboard, I don't want to reach for the mouse to
do a paste and Alt-space, e, p is awkward.

Would it be possible to extend bash to pick up a single char paste?

Kevin
