I want to stop terminal in VS Code with CTRL + C but instead of stopping it, it shows ^C (GitBash)/copy directory (CMD). Because of that, I decided to kill the terminal. How to deal with that?
Use Ctrl + D to log out of the terminal, and automatically close it.
Ctrl + C just sends a SIGINT to the process, which is usually causing it to abort, but it's up to the application to decide.

I'm running on Linux. I have the issue both in bash and pwsh shells.
How do I clear the current command prompt in the VS Code terminal?
For example, say you have copied and pasted a very long string into the terminal.
How do you clear what you just pasted?
The only way I know of for getting back to a an empty command prompt involves hitting backspace until you have deleted every character.
Is there any short cut for getting back to an empty prompt?
Thanks!
How do you clear what you just pasted?
There is no command to clear what you have already pasted. You can do Ctrl + C or Ctrl+D to get the next promt.
Now if you want a short-cut to clear command which we use in terminal, its Cmd + k for Mac OS
CTRL + shift + p, then write clear. You can use the clear command in bash terminal too.
Use Console.Clear() in code.
or use 'cls' cmd on console
I am following some tutorials on how to work with Mongodb but they don't explain how to close the CLI. I usually just use "exit" but after running mongod it now does nothing, and if I try to leave by just closing the window I get a message saying "processes running in session".
I get the same problem with the other gitbash window after running npm run dev (I think the "dev" part is just specific to what I do now?).
Normally you can press 'ctrl' + 'c' on your keyboard and it should stop the process running on your command line tool.
Have a look here thing might be more MongoDB specific help

The command to save a file in Vim and quit the editor is :wq . To save the file and exit the editor simultaneously, press Esc to switch to normal mode, type :wq and hit Enter .

I'm really a noob in the CLI, so please help me. I accidentally entered nl in CentOS and now I'm stuck in this list. How do I exit nl?
Thanks for your help!
Ctrl-C can usually be used to kill terminal commands in linux.
EDIT:
Ctrl-D should be used to terminate nl correctly. Ctrl-C is just a general way to kill applications.
I am currently using CTRL+C and CTRL+V for copy and paste respectively in Ubuntu (16.04). So in this case, how can I terminate /abort a command in Terminal.
NOTE: The control+C does not work for me neither quit() or Exit().
Please advise.
The default terminal (gnome-terminal) uses Ctrl+Shift+c and Ctrl+Shift+v for exactly this reason. If you are in a bash prompt (unclear from context here), you can quit by writing exit.
