How to copy long text from PuTTY to text document in Windows?
What I usually do:
- Clear Scrollback (in PuTTY window title bar context [right-click] menu)
-
Reset Terminal (or
clear
command or equivalent) -
display file, e.g.
cat myfile
Copy All to Clipboard
You will obviously still get at least the cat myfile
command in the clipboard, but you can easily remove that after pasting.
