[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Geany Locking up when typing or copying of text (#1540)

[hdaz000700]

Hi Thanks for you comments, I have not found the solution to the issue yet... 

I did try a few things : 

I tied to narrow down where in the document the issue might be still working on this one, and the issue does move to a new document at some point but my copying and pasting was a good few hundred thousands lines at a time.

had a look at non-ascii chars with 
grep --color='auto' -P -n '[^\x00-\x7F]'

this works out to be around 209560 lines and I am not sure if this will show null chars or not.

tried looking for null chars with 
grep -m 1 -LE "[^\]" Info2add.txt

but nothing returned....

the file is almost 300 MB in size... so using cat / grep would only really help if I knew what to look for... 

I'll keep looking as this is pretty important to me and my productivity is taking a massive hit....

Thanks for your comments, any ideas comments on how to stop this from happening in the future would be great to hear

To be honest I have not tested this on Linux since it started happening, I will and let you know.
All I wanted to say was that normally I used the same file on box OSes.

Cheers Daz
