Description of the new feature/enhancement

In the standard cmd and PowerShell there is the ability after highlighting (marking) text in the window then by pressing one could copy text from the CLI. In the new Terminal, not saying it has to be the same process as before but also or Ctrl+C after marking does not allow the user to copy text and there should be some way to accomplish this. If there is a way to copy text I am not aware of it.
