Description

Hi there,

I've tried pasting the following in to the example:

1

3


6

You can see there's two empty lines between the 3 and 6. When pasted into the scribe example, they are not maintained. Is this a bug?

Research direction
Investigate the paste event handling in Scribe. Look for tests or code related to clipboard paste, likely in the source files handling text insertion. Check if there is any normalization of newlines or handling of multiple empty lines. The issue describes that pasting two consecutive empty lines results in only one. Examine the paste event handler and the logic that processes the pasted content. Since the repository is deprecated, consider if the fix would be valuable.
