Hi Dscho,

I've had major problems using copy-paste in linux for the last few years
(OpenSuse). OpenOffice never worked well for me.  I was able to paste
into Microsoft Powerpoint running in CodeWeavers Crossover Office.

Look in the archives for some of my posts on the ImageJ forum, I've
posted various details.  I think someone with knowledge of Java might be
able to figure it out - there were lots of strange details.
