When we copy paste commands from articles on the web, there is often a $ at the beginning. Is there a way to automatically remove it when pasting it into iTerm?

Open iTerm and go to the menu:



iTerm2 -> Preferences -> Keys.



Under "Key Mappings" click on + and scroll down to "Paste..."



Check the entry:



✓ Replace . (.+) with $1



This is will remove the first character and a whitespace after it from the text on paste.
