Copy/Paste not working in terminal.

I've read other student's inquires as to copy/paste course = {'teacher':'Ashley', 'title':'Introducing Dictionaries', 'level':'Beginner'} into the python terminal, however, none of it works. My alternative was to just manually type it in. If anyone has a better idea NOT mentioned by others then please let me know. It's no big deal, but very annoying when trying to follow along with the teacher. FYI - I tried the copy/paste in VSCode, and it works so I may just begin using that instead of the provided workspace.

By “python terminal” do you mean the REPL shell? Which OS and terminal are you using to get the python shell?

Hi Chris Freeman . I used the wrong terminology. I meant the REPL shell in the workspace. I try to go along with Ashley, and noticed that she did a copy/past from the program to the REPL shell. For someone reason, it doesn't work for me. Hope I make sense. Thank you.

I'm putting this in for future references. Someone from the treehouse staff answered this on this comment https://teamtreehouse.com/community/how-to-copy-code-in-the-console-terminal-of-the-work-space-window

Hope this helps anyone in the future!
