Ubuntu – Why can’t I copy text from the Ubuntu Terminal

clipboardcommand linetext;

This is really weird. I can't copy anything from the terminal. The Ctrl+Shift+C command and Edit->Copy does nothing, no matter how much or little text I have selected. What ever was on my clipboard before the command is still there after.

Why can't I copy text from the Terminal?

Pasting into the terminal works just fine

Best Answer

you can, But you have to go into the settings.

Edit -> Keyboard shortcuts -> find copy and past commands -> Click to alter and enter new combo "ctrl+x, v, c, etc..."
