I just followed that recipe to the letter, using Rev v4.0 on Ubuntu 
9.10/Gnome 2.28.1.

To test I used a copy of my WebMerge stack, with just under 300 objects 
on its card.  The script I used was the main processing engine for the 
app, more than 4600 lines worth.

Worked a treat.

So I kept trying, copying text from the Inspector, elsewhere in the 
script, pasting all over the place, drag-n-drop -- all worked fine.

I don't know enough about either your system or Rev to guess where the 
problem lies, but here I can't reproduce it on Ubuntu.
