I still something weird going on mainly in Windows, where the terminal window knows there is sdata on the clipboard that we can paste/but the main window/editor does not.

SO I will take another look before pushing the changes up

The m-editor is calling setEnabled(false) on some of the global actions when it is initially setting up the editor.

Patch here to fix issue, which should also ben pushed to stable.

I also saw this on Ubuntu 16.04

If I select some text outside of octave and put it on the clipboard and then open the octave gui:

1. the octave main menu does not allow the paste option

2. the editor doesn't allow the paste option via context menu or toolbar

3. the command window Paste is always enabled and on selection of the paste menu pastes the data from the clipboard ok.

If I select data after octave is opened (either in octave or outside of octave) the paste items are then enabled.

I see the same both in octave-dev in fedora (running in a VM) and octave 4.2.1 in Windows 10
