Windows Terminal version

1.22.2362.0

Windows build number

10.0.22631.4037

Steps to reproduce

  • Settings -> Actions -> Add New -> Add "Ctrl+l" (lowercase L) for "Clear Buffer". Press Save.
  • Open tab with "Command Prompt".
  • Execute "cd C:\Windows". Execute "dir" several times to fill the screen.
  • Press Ctrl+l (lowercase L).

Expected Behavior

Clear Buffer works fine in Windows Terminal v.1.20.11781.0.

Actual Behavior

Clear Buffer does not work in Windows Terminal Preview v.1.22.2362.0.

The same problem can be reproduced with "Ubuntu 24.04 LTS" tab (WSL2).

I've just noticed that pressing Ctrl+Shift+L works differently from Ctrl+L (but still broken). And I didn't assign Ctrl+Shift+L to anything.
