Copy & Paste functions in the embedded terminal

[dsanmartins]

I want to be able to copy and paste text directly within the embedded terminal, without needing to rely on an external terminal or console. However, attempts to do so using both the mouse and keyboard have been unsuccessful. When I right-click, a context menu appears, and pressing CTRL+V inserts ^M characters instead of pasting the text correctly.

I often need this functionality for tasks such as retrieving stored passwords to log in to GitHub, especially when pushing or pulling changes for my LaTeX work

This was delivered as is. I am not really interested to dig into the code to extend it, especially as it is qt5/linux only.

have you tried just selecting the text and using the middle mouse button paste?
