How to paste into a terminal?

I have copied a URL, such as git://gitorious.org/openhatch/oh-mainline.git. I want to paste this in the terminal using a keyboard shortcut.

Please don't say "right click and paste."

Solution

  • Gnome terminal defaults to ControlShiftv

    OSX terminal defaults to Commandv. You can also use CommandControlv to paste the text in escaped form.

    Windows 7 terminal defaults to CtrlShiftInsert
