Hello. I've made a simple script which asks the user to input a hash and then runs a command that replaces the variable $hash with what the user inserted. The ting is that when the programm asks for input I can't paste anything there..! any clues?? :wall:
We need to know more bout your system, on what you work (terminal type...) etc...
If this is in X11, try pasting with the middle mouse button instead of ctrl-v. Most terminals will consider ctrl-v to be a terminal key sequence and not the "paste" hotkey.
I'm running Backtrack 4 and working on its terminal.
I press right click on the command line and selecting "paste". Nothing happens....
Have you tried middle-click yet?
I don't have a middle click... I'm using touchpad... There has to be another way than middle click. Are there any settings in the console that disable paste? Maybe i did something like that accidentaly...
Whatever.....
Is Shift-Insert works?
You might be able to enable middle-click emulation, in which left+right click at the same time is middle click..
