Originally created by @vimlet on GitHub (May 29, 2020).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/electerm/electerm/issues/1717

Electerm version:

v1.3.34

Operating system(linux, macos, or windows7/8/10?):

Windows 10

Expected Behavior

Paste should replace Windows style \r\n endlines with Unix style endlines \n to maintain original format.

Current Behavior

Electerm makes copy and paste in terminal text editor line nano tedious.

Possible Solution

Implement a middleman pastebin that replaces with a simple regex \r\n with \n .
This could be togglable in Electerm preferences.

@vimlet Do you mean for local session with powershell? Are you using a custom local terminal app in settings. For remote sessions it is already replaced \r\n with \n.
