Hi all,

I recently experimented an issue when pasting "tab" characters to zsh
terminal. Whereas
changing the shell to "sh" or opening a terminal editor like "nano" allowed
me to paste
a text with tabs, when copying the same text with tabs into "zsh" it
literally EATS the TAB
characters.

I've observed this behaviour in Ubuntu 12.04/14.04 (within Biolinux
distribution).

I hope there is a workaround or some trick I may not know.

Many thanks for your help in advance,
Xavi

Ex:
Text in "Leafpad" (plain text editor):

this<TAB>is<TAB>a<TAB>test

When coyp/pasted (via menu or shortcut(Ctrk+Shift+V) to sh or nano the
output is as expected:

this<TAB>is<TAB>a<TAB>test

But when pasted to "zsh" the output is:

thisisatest
