strange "copy" behaviour in gnome-nettool

[Paolo Benvenuto]

In gnome-nettool, the edit->copy command and the ctl-c shortcut have a strange behaviour: they copy to the clipboard the result of the network test.

This produces inconsistecies, because if I select the network address in the port scan tab, I expect that the copy command acts on the selection, while it copies the result of the action. While ctl-x act actually on the selection.

The thing is stranger if I consider that this ctl-c behaviour could have a meaning in the case I have performed a test, but it has no meaning when no test has been performed. At least in this case ctl-c should actually copy the selection to the clipboard.

Anyway I consider this behaviour is confusing.

In order to copy the test result to the clipboard a separate command should be offered.
