How to copy all text from the integrated vs-code terminal?

Question

Is there a way to copy all the text from the integrated Visual Studio Code terminal? I have some output that I want to copy to a text file and save it.

Answer 1

If right-click in the terminal is configured to paste, hold Shift while right-clicking to bring up the contextual menu and choose Select All and Copy.

Answer 2

I can just right-click in the terminal and chose Select All and then right-click and Copy. Does that not work for you?

There is an unbound command for the selection:

workbench.action.terminal.selectAll

and Ctrl+C for the copy.

If you do this a lot you could make a macro to do the whole thing: select, copy, open a new text file and paste.
