Copy into single line invalid

[hyahm]

Ubuntu terminal

"keybindings": [
        { "command": { "action": "copy", "argument": true }, "keys": ["ctrl+shift+c"] }
    ]

It was good when I first opened the terminal, but when I log in to the server remotely, the copy will be in multiple lines, and it will be the same when I log out. I need to close the terminal and reopen it.

• What is the purpose of "argument": true in your copy keybinding? I'm pretty sure that's not going to do anything...
• Is this possibly Terminal breaks copied text at window line wraps, even when the text has no new-line characters #5113?

Okay yea, but that was more exemplary of how arguments are provided in general. None of the keybindings actually take a parameter named "argument" 😆

Command	Command Description	Action (*=required)	Action Arguments	Argument Descriptions
copy	Copy the selected terminal content to your Windows Clipboard.	singleLine	boolean	When true, the copied content will be copied as a single line. When false, newlines persist from the selected text.

So you probably want

{ "command": { "action": "copy", "singleLine ": true }, "keys": ["ctrl+shift+c"] }

Though, I believe we only changed the name of that parameter in the unreleased 0.11 builds. I think before that it was named "trimWhitespace". (it was changed here)
