Thanks for the responses, and for the suggestions.
Surely it would be possible, however, for the shell to ignore the
ellipsis/newline sequence, at the very least? Rewriting the command to remove
it would be better still, but perhaps that's more tricky.
All the best,
Jon

You can also bind some key to save the current commandline:
bind \ey 'commandline | pbcopy'

Copying Pasting is a terminal-level thing. You can only copy the actual
text that's rendered on the terminal. So yes, you're going to get the
ellipsis/newline as well. Sadly, there's no avoiding that.
However, you could work around this by piping text to `pbcopy`. If you have
a command in your command line that you want to copy, just hit
^Aecho '^E' | pbcopy
Unless you have single-quotes in the command, this will send the whole
command-line to `pbcopy`. Alternatively, if this is a command you've already
executed and now you want to save it, you could use the `history` command,
e.g.
history | head -1 | pbcopy

Dear all,
Before raising an issue for this I wanted to check if this behaviour
is intended or unavoidable. It seems that when long commands are
copied and pasted between fish instances, the inserted ellipsis
characters and line breaks are pasted too, and interpreted. The
practical upshot of this is that only part of the command line is
pasted, with an ellipsis character, and then executed. This is quite
annoying. It seems to happen in both the beta release and current
master within Terminal.app on OS X 10.8.
Can anyone shed any further light on this, please?
Thanks, and all the best,
Jon
