Description Robinson Tryon (qubit) 2015-01-06 22:42:48 UTC
TESTING on OS X 10.9.5 with LO Version: 4.5.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 4d3b725000e537ce6199f0abd1c80580c9bf95c8
TinderBox: MacOSX-x86_64@49-TDF,
Branch:master,
Time: 2015-01-02_10:08:47
Locale: en_

REPRO:
- Open Writer
- Type "turtle", select and cut it (Ctrl-X or any other method)
- View the Edit menu to see unevaluated variable ("Undo: Delete $1")

EXPECTED: Actual cut text to be present

This only appears to work with text that is cut. Deleting text with Backspace or Delete keys works as expected.

Interesting notes: 
Both Firefox (FF) and TextEdit (TE) on the Mac don't mention the text on which I operated:

App Cut Text         Backspace over Text  Delete (Del key) text
--- ---------------  -------------------  ---------------------
LO  Undo: Delete $1  Undo: Delete 'cow'   Undo: Delete 'turtle'
FF  Undo             Undo                 Undo
TE  Undo Cut         Undo Typing          Undo

@Rob: It would be good to also check the undo/redo drop down menus in the toolbar to check if the problem is in there as well.
