  • Your Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.16299.192]

  • What you're doing and what's happening:
    Select text in a (WSL/Bash on Windows) console using the mouse and
    copying it using right mouse button.

  • What's wrong / what should be happening instead:
    The resulting text (when pasted) got no newlines but lots of whitespace between the lines instead.
