Can't paste text into the prompt [windows].

[PavelDobCZ23]

When running script inside of windows cmd or node.js cmd on windows, I can't paste text using both (CTRL+V & Win + V) to the command prompt while prompt is being used. Pasting works for me only within VSCode console and Windows Terminal app in such case.

Hey @PavelDobCZ23
Could you test using prompt@1.0.0 version also please? We made small changes recently that might have impacts

I'm on linux (paste works fine there btw) and can't easily test windows, thanks

What's your node version?

[PavelDobCZ23]

My node version is 14.17.5, I've tried built-in readline module and there was the same issue. I've tried prompt@1.0 but still, I can't use CTRL+V nor Win+V to paste anything.

@PavelDobCZ23 If that doesn't work with the builtin readline I'm afraid we can't make it any better here

Can you access a linux-like command line? I think Github CLI for windows has one

then try to run while read text; do echo "$text"; done in it and see if paste works there

Or try to run this: node -p "require('fs').readFileSync(0)"

and see if paste works there too, if not you need to get a terminal that supports paste better
