claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Allow expanding collapsed multi-line paste in input prompt [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

Implement a toggle or preview feature to expand collapsed pasted multi-line text in the Claude Code prompt.

Guidance

• Consider adding a click or keybinding (e.g., Ctrl+P or Tab) to toggle between collapsed and expanded views of pasted text.
• Showing the first 3-5 lines with a "show more" indicator could be a viable alternative.
• Investigate why Ctrl+E to open in $EDITOR doesn't work in all environments (e.g., cmux terminal) to improve the current workaround.
• Evaluate the feasibility of integrating an inline editor or preview pane to enhance user experience.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue focuses on feature implementation rather than code correction.

Notes

The solution may require adjustments based on the specific environment (e.g., cmux terminal) and the $EDITOR variable's behavior.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround, such as implementing a toggle or preview feature, as it directly addresses the user's need to verify pasted content before submission.
