Conemu: Can't paste whole clipboard

[Stanzilla]

I tried to paste on 160313

git filter-branch --env-filter '
    oldname="xx"
    oldemail="none"
    newname="xx"
    newemail="xx"
    [ "$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL" = "$oldemail" ] && GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="$newemail"
    [ "$GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL" = "$oldemail" ] && GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$newemail"
    [ "$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME" = "$oldname" ] && GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="$newname"
    [ "$GIT_COMMITTER_NAME" = "$oldname" ] && GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$newname"
    ' HEAD

but it stopped after the '

Do I need to guess how are you trying to paste?

[Stanzilla]

Ctrl+V sorry

[Stanzilla]

Okay so Shift+Insert doesn't work either though since it does it line by line and then fails.

[Maximus5]

Another cmder problem?

[Stanzilla]

Hrm nope, downloaded a portable ConEmu build and tested it: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/5h9bt7rga2yejfu/2016-03-22_23-21-16.webm?dl=0

You were warned. It's your shell behavior.

[Maximus5]

FYI, to type multi-line command in cmd.exe prompt, each continued line must be ended with ^. And of course, this "continuator" is different for each shell.

Anyway, copy-pasting multiline commands (from websites?) into terminal is very-very bad idea. That's why Ctrl+V do this limited action by default.

Copy-paste is still fundamentally broken for me on current version (180415). It's rendering it pretty much unusable.

Used to work fine - I have no idea why it suddenly broke.

[Maximus5]

@aiwebb Your description is so fundamentally unclear that I have no idea what answer to you...

Windows 10. Ctrl+C in any other application. Copies the contents to the clipboard. One line, multiple lines, whatever. Ctrl+V in any other application. Pastes the contents. Works without any issues.

With ConEmu, Ctrl+V pastes a seemingly random subset of the clipboard. If the clipboard contains 400 characters, it might paste characters from the range 302-390. Doesn't matter if the text was copied from another application or from ConEmu.

Happens consistently.

[Maximus5]

It does matter what console application you run in ConEmu when you try to paste.

[efc-awebb]

@Maximus5 This is when running WSL's bash.

[Maximus5]

Sure. And how do you run WSL's bash?

Thanks @dwatrous! This has been such a massive issue, this is a big help!

[mbarkhau]

@dwatrous can you point to the specific comment that shows how to fix this?

[Maximus5]

ConEmu.exe -basic -run {bash}

BashOnWindows in ConEmu

There's now an update on that thread #1314 - all you have to do is install the latest version and re-create your Default Tasks! Thanks @Maximus5 !
