Sometimes, when you SSH to a Linux box, pasting large amounts of text into a terminal can be problematic.
In pico/nano you will get some auto wrapping that could damage your code or outline your text.
To fix this you can use: nano -w yourfile.txt
-w (--nowrap)
Disable wrapping of long lines.
In vi/vim you can get a "staircase" effect.
To fix this, in command mode, type:
:set paste
to turn it back off:
:set nopaste
