I've noticed that the new development builds and 1.5 release don't seem to like trying to cut and paste some extended ASCII characters in a comment line via a right mouse button context menu. Specifically, 176 & 178 don't work, and perhaps others. Version 1.4 didn't give me that issue.
I get a 'Internal IDE error on line: 24692, 3043116' when I try to right click a context menu in a comment line. Screen shot included.
I should note that the screen shot is from one of the earlier dev builds, not the 1.5 release.

Thank you for reporting.
Because development builds moved pretty fast, I'd request you to try to reproduce the issue in the officially released version. I reproduced it locally. Thanks again.

I can reliably reproduce the issue in the 1.5 release as well. It points to a line in the HashValue& function. At least the line number points to the same code line in that function in any tested dev build or 1.5.
I can cut and paste using the Edit menu just fine, the issue seems to be primarily a mouse click thing with right button context menu.
After some more playing with it, the pattern I'm seeing is trying to right click any highlighted group of extended character #128 or higher in a comment line with consecutive multiples of that character. If there is only a single character present, I don't get the error.
PS after more testing, it seems those consecutive multiples must occur at the end of the line. Putting a couple in the middle of random characters doesn't create a problem.

A fix is available in the development channel now: https://www.qb64.org/portal/development-build/
