I thought it would work like insertFromMimeData [1].
I tested it with QTextEdit widget and works fine!
I need that to execute multi-line command in my shell i.e.:
>>> if True:
. . . print "Hello"
. . . if False:
. . . print "Bye Bye"
so the last command line only paste the text doesnt run it!
Also, I implemented dropEvent() and has worked only for drag and drop event
and not to paste :-(
Anyway, thanks a lot!
