How to paste text in the Linux command line?

In the Linux command line, you can paste text using the following method:

  1. By right-clicking the mouse, this will automatically paste the contents in the clipboard into the command line.
  2. By using Ctrl+Shift+V, you can also paste the content from the clipboard into the command line.
  3. Use Ctrl+Shift+C to copy the text to the clipboard, and then use Ctrl+Shift+V to paste it into the command line.

Please note that these methods only apply to most Linux distributions based on the X Window System. For server versions without the X Window System, command line tools like tmux or screen can be used to achieve similar functionality. Please refer to the relevant documentation for specific instructions.
