How to past more than 49 lines of text to file

[rmestrum]

Summary

When I create a file in the /tmp folder using vi I only can paste 49 lines of text into that file. When I try to paste 50 or more lines of text, the text is not added at all and I get no error message. The vi screen stays empty

My question is: How can I paste more than 49 lines of text using the webterminal in openshift?

I believe this is an issue in xterm.js and its handling of long pastes -- if you open a terminal into the pod via the usual way (i.e. click on the pod > terminal) are you able to paste more than 49 lines of text?

There's nothing on the Web Terminal Operator side that restricts this.
