I just upgraded from Mint 20.3 XFCE to Mint 21 XFCE. All is well, but the xfce-terminal doesn't directly execute anymore the pasted commands (which contain Enter at the end). Previously, when I copied a command, or a sequence of commands from a text file or a website, and then pasted them (with middle mouse click) directly in the xfce-terminal, it simply ran them. Now, it marks the pasted text white and wants me to hit ENTER. What happened, how can I make it simply run the pasted text directly just like it used to?

As the user "Quasímodo" above pointed out it his comment, the solution is to turn off bracketed paste:
So add this to ~/.inputrc
:
set enable-bracketed-paste Off
restart Bash
Strange, I don't remember doing that before. Is that new for Ubuntu 22?
