Is there any way to set MobaXterm to implicitly add Carriage Return chars ("\r") when a Newline character, "\n", is received? Like in TeraTerm you can set NewLine to CR, CR+LF, LF or auto.

I'm confused by use of 'implicit' here. Do you want the cursor to move to the first column -- perform the carriage return action -- when LF is received? ... now that I ask that I have vague memories from lifetimes ago about this term being used in this context. – steve Sep 29 '23 at 15:24

Right click on the terminal screen, select "Change terminal settings..." and check "Implicit CR in every LF"

1Absolutely nothing happens if I right-click on the terminal in MobaxTerm. Moreover, nowhere do I find Implicit CR in every LF in the Terminal Settings. – Willie Visagie Jan 28 '21 at 13:42

If no context menu, then either press shift while right-click or disable config setting "paste on right-click" – steve Sep 29 '23 at 15:00

FWIW "Implicit CR in every LF" is confusing. Makes no sense to include a byte in a byte. Maybe "on every" or even better "after each" is closer to what they mean. And what does 'implicit' mean? Does that mean the display/output will act as if the input stream has a CR after LF? I guess that's implicit WRT the stream, but it's explicit WRT the display. Confusing. – steve Sep 29 '23 at 15:17

FYI: if the config setting 'paste on right-click' is enabled, you have to use shift to get the context menu to open ... terrible UX IMO. – steve Sep 29 '23 at 14:58
