How to copy FAR file manager's output
You do it the same way for all Windows Console programs:
Enter Mark mode: Alt+Space, E, K
Mark text using Shift+←↑↓→
Press Enter to copy, or Esc to cancel.
Alternatively, you can redirect the output of a specific command to a file:
ping > output.txt
Far Manager has a special key combination that starts the selection: Alt+Insert
. Then follow steps 2 and 3 suggested by @grawity.
in the far console, type
edit:<ping 127.0.0.1
instead of just
ping 127.0.0.1
it will execute the ping command and open the Far built-in editor with the output afterwards. You will be able to edit it as a normal text file
you can also use view:<
instead of edit:<
to open the built-in viewer, not editor
