Rstudio: Allow cut/paste in terminal with CTRL-SHIFT-C / CTRL-SHIFT-V

[gtritchie]

From https://community.rstudio.com/t/allow-cut-paste-in-terminal-with-ctrl-shift-c-ctrl-shift-v

while working in the RStudio bash terminal on Linux, it seems that it is not possible to use the “standard” cut and paste shortcuts (CTRL-SHIFT-C / CTRL-SHIFT-V). Is there a way to “enable” this ?

If not, I would consider it a useful improvement for future versions

A related point: On Windows FireFox 62.0.3, the only _paste_ option in the RStudio built-in terminal seems to be SHIFT+INSET.

PS. I checked and verified the following options do not work:

• CTRL+V
• Right click and then select Paste

Systems' details

RStudio Edition   :  Server
RStudio Version   :  1.1.423

Not sure if related but, if I copy -with control+C or with edit>copy- something in RStudio,

• in Console or a View tab and

1. I paste in firefox address bar, it works.
2. I paste in body of online outlook email it does not work (but in gmail it does)

• in source, then "paste" works always.

Linux 4.9.0.12
