What application are you pasting into?  Are lines concatenated?? Copying 
a rectangle block to the clipboard and pasting into several 
applications, I see no problem.  The only difference is that CODE 
appends a 'new-line' indicator to both the beginning and the end of the 
copied text (for both rectangle and element selections) - this will also 
be done in LPEX;  but this difference could be circumvented by pasting 
into an empty line rather than into the middle of existing text.

Also, please note that LPEX copies the text to the clipboard in two 
formats - both plain text, and RTF (i.e., syntax coloring included). 
Pasting will be done, in most applications I've seen, in the RTF format 
by default.
