Description
Description of the problem or steps to reproduce
When pasting text into micro (either copied from micro or outside of micro), the text gets mangled.

I tried the temporary fixed listed here , but that didn't help.
Tested the same in both PowerShell and CMD windows and the results were as expected.

Start by reproducing the paste behavior in ConEmu on Windows 10 using commit c51f849, then compare it with the reported PowerShell and CMD behavior. Done means text pasted into micro from both inside and outside the editor is no longer mangled.
