How to paste into ansi-term (evil-mode)

Question

I want to copy some text from my browser and paste it into ansi-term. I am a vim user and I want to give spacemacs a try once again.

Naturally what I did was:

• Opening ansi-term by typing SPC SPC ansi-term.
• Switch to normal-state by pressing ESC.
• Switch to my browser, copy some text
• Switch back to emacs, press p which seems to be right (the text was pasted)

So I try some alternatives

• Press enter, and surprised since the command didn't executed
• Press i to switch to insert mode, and do it again. Yet still didn't work.
• Press SPC SPC term-paste, now it works

What I expect is, I can simply use evil binding to copy-pasting things in spacemacs and get it work.

Can anybody please show me what's wrong and how to do this correctly?

Thanks

EDIT: I can get it works by switching to line mode. So, after I start ansi-term, I need to press Ctrl c Ctrl j. Still looking for a better way if there is any.

EDIT AGAIN: The official way to do this is <S-Insert> (shift + insert)

Answer 1

A command to paste into an ansi-term is bound to S-insert (that's shift insert) by default.

runs the command term-paste (found in term-raw-map), which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in ‘term.el’.

It is bound to .

(term-paste)

Insert the last stretch of killed text at point.

Answer 2

In the latest version of spacemacs (as of jan 2018), SPC SPC is replaced by SPC :.

So in order to get term-paste working, you have to do SPC : term-paste in ansi-term
