[Can’t fix] Extraneous NULL byte on copy-paste from AKT2 window.

[cpcitor]

Whenever I copy text from Arkos Tracker application it has an extraneous byte 0 appended to it.

This may actually be a bug in Juce X11 port.

Example:

Normal behavior, select text from any X11 app, then in terminal run

xclip -o | hd

00000000 74 65 78 74 |text|
00000004

As you see, “text” is the content of the clipboard.

Now use the “copy” button in Arkos Tracker 2 error report, see that an extraneous byte “0” is appended.

xclip -o | hd

If you see user reports having problems with clipboard, this might be related.
