I just had an interesting discovery with copying and pasting Chinese characters from arbitrary applications in Windows Mobile. The accepted behaviour is that you can't copy/paste into Pleco from other applications (outside of Notes and a couple others), but actually you can, but only under these specific conditions:
Exit completely from Pleco using the File-Exit menu.
Copy the Chinese text From any other application.
Start Pleco, Paste the text.
The text will actually paste into Pleco!
Unfortunately it will only do it once. You can only successfully paste characters from any arbitrary app on the very first paste - once a single paste has been made into Pleco something gets screwed up and you're back to the status quo.
This leads me to suspect there's probably some issue with the way 1.0 is handling the buffers vs. an OS issue, as copy paste works everywhere else. This close to 2.0 I'm not looking for a 1.0 patch, I'm just really hoping for better text handling in 2.0.
