p2u (Paste to Unix)

Paste text content with Unix-like line endings into Windows Terminal without extra line wrapping or spaces. That includes Cmd and Vim.

Installation

It requires the .NET Core 5.0+ runtime that you can download from here dot.net

.NET Core is a cross-platform version of .NET for building websites, services, and console apps.

$ dotnet tool install --global p2u

After installation, copy any bash multi-line commands like this from the internet

helm install --name redis-cluster \
  --set cluster.slaveCount=3 \
  --set password=password \
  --set securityContext.enabled=true \
  --set securityContext.fsGroup=2000 \
  --set securityContext.runAsUser=1000 \
  --set volumePermissions.enabled=true \
  --set master.persistence.enabled=true \

  --set slave.persistence.enabled=true \
  --set slave.persistence.path=/data \
  --set slave.persistence.size=8Gi \
  --set slave.persistence.storageClass=manual \
stable/redis

Example

Convert the line endings by doing

$ p2u pst --wsl

Line endings converted!
Try to hit the right mouse button now (or CTRL+SHIFT+V)...

And then paste into Windows Terminal like you do in other Unix system terminals
