  • Your Windows build number: (Type ver at a Windows Command Prompt)

Microsoft Windows [version 10.0.17134.48]

  • What you're doing and what's happening: (Copy & paste specific commands and their output, or include screen shots)

(I am using Cmder v1.3.5, itself being a wrapper around ConEmu)
I'm copying some text into a bash.exe tab, for example dircolors --print-database > ~/.mydircolors and pasting it into Cmder

  • What's wrong / what should be happening instead:

The paste is malformed, for example I only have dircolors when pasting the command above
This problem only occurs when using bash.exe in Cmder, when using wslbridge* the paste is okay

*: This is wslbridge task command:
set "PATH=%ConEmuBaseDirShort%\wsl;%PATH%" & %ConEmuBaseDirShort%\conemu-cyg-64.exe --wsl -cur_console:pm:/mnt

(See also https://github.com/Maximus5/ConEmu/issues/1314)

When pasting the same text into bash.exe without Cmder (standard windows's cmd), everything is fine
I don't know if I should create the issue here or on ConEmu's github, but the issue I linked is a bit dead

I can use wslbridge task (the "connector") but it behaves weirdly, I would like to stay with bash
