Xshell, as a powerful terminal simulator, plays an important role in remote management and system maintenance. Reasonable setting of Xshell buffer size and right-click copy and paste functionality are crucial when using Xshell. Next, this article will provide you with a detailed introduction to the method of setting buffer size in xshell.

 

一、Method for setting buffer size in xshell

 

The Xshell buffer size setting is crucial for improving data processing efficiency and managing large files. Buffer settings can affect the history of instructions, data display, and the ability to rotate and query information in the terminal.

 

Here's how to set the buffer size in Xshell:


1. Open the Xshell configuration window:

After opening Xshell, the first step is to open the device window. On the homepage, click on the "Tools" menu, select "Options" or find the settings icon directly from the toolbar.



2. Enter terminal settings:


In the pop-up options window, search for the "Terminal" toolbar. This toolbar includes various settings related to terminal display.



3. Adjust the buffer size:

Under the "Terminal" settings, search for "Rolling Buffer" or similar options. Generally speaking, you will see options for setting "number of rows" or "buffer size". Based on adjusting the number of rows, this value determines how many rows of historical records can be stored in the buffer. It is generally recommended to set it to over a thousand lines, and the actual value can be adjusted according to user habits and system resources.



4. Save settings and restart Xshell:

After completing the settings, click "OK" to save the changes. To ensure the settings take effect, it may be necessary to restart the Xshell application. By reasonably setting the buffer size of Xshell, users can more conveniently view historical records and process large amounts of output data, thereby improving work efficiency.

二、Xshell settings right-click copy paste

The right-click copy function is an important operation commonly used in Xshells, which can improve the convenience and efficiency of operations。


Here is how to set the right-click copy function in Xshell:


1. Options for accessing Xshell:

Start Xshell and enter the main interface, click on the "Tools" menu, select "Options", or find the settings icon on the toolbar to configure



2. Enter mouse settings:

In the options window, find the "Mouse" settings tab. This setting includes relevant configurations for mouse operation.



3. Right click operation for configuration:

In the "Mouse" settings, search for options for "right-click menu" or "right-click operation". Open the 'Enable right-click copy and paste' function. This way, users can perform copy and paste operations based on the right-click menu. Some versions of Xshell also allow users to choose whether to use the right-click function for quick paste. It can be adjusted according to personal usage habits.



4. Application settings and testing:

After saving the settings, click "OK" to apply the changes. You can test it by opening a terminal session to ensure that the right-click copy and paste function works as expected. By correctly setting the right-click copy and paste function, users can operate Xshell more efficiently, avoid frequent use of shortcut keys, and improve work fluency.

三、How to use Xshell quick commands


The effective instruction function of Xshell can significantly improve customer efficiency in terminal operations. According to the definition and application of quick commands, users can reduce typing time and quickly implement common operations.

Here's how to use Xshell quick commands:



1.Open Command Manager:



Open Xshell, click on the "Tools" menu on the homepage, and select the "Instructions" or "Quick Instructions" option. This will activate the Quick Command Manager.


2.Create a new shortcut command:

In the Command Manager, click the "New" button and enter the command name and content. The command content can be commonly used system commands, scripts, or other terminal instructions. Short aliases can be set for each shortcut command to facilitate quick calling in the terminal.


 

3.Configure shortcut keys (optional):

Partial versions of Xshell allow users to configure shortcut keys for each shortcut command. This allows for quick execution of preset commands by pressing specific shortcut keys.



4.Save and use shortcut commands:

After the device is finished, set the storage command. In the terminal window, this command can be quickly executed by entering the command name or using shortcut keys. By using Xshell's efficient instructions, users can perform repetitive operations more efficiently, saving a lot of time and energy.
