I have seen this some years ago with "joe" and had been correted a long time ago. IIRC the effect occured when the the text editor had a setting called somthing called "copy indentaion from previous line" enabled and did not care if the text entered was comming from clipboard or entered by the user via keyboard. So when you paste a line with whitspaces at the beginning of the line this happens: a) on newline/linebreak, the leading whitespaces of the current line are copied to the next line. b) the curser is placed after these whitespaces c) the next line is entered - whith the leading whitespaces So you end up with this mess.
