Right - I see the problem. There's an extra 'char' on the end of the 
line which can indeed be de-selected. That is actually RTF formatting 
code (we use the RTF text boxes on Windows for large strings because 
otherwise we get restricted to 64K or something silly).

The problem is though, that it remains the underlying controls that are 
doing the copy and the paste operations so we still have no way in 
pgAdmin to filter it out. You can actually test this by pasting using 
the button to do it - that does use our code which ensures it pastes 
plain text (thus losing the RTF cruft that causes the 'newline'. The 
problem is that the controls don't allow us to override their paste 
hotkeys - at least if they do, it needs some unusual foo that I've yet 
to stumble across.
