Hi Troy, If you are using the R GUI for Windows, I highly recommend just copying and pasting everything into the accompanying script editor, and then you can run the commands you want directly from there.
The Windows clipboard can be finicky sometimes, so I would not be too hasty to think the problem rests with the R console. You can also try pasting using the mouse (this is actually what you have to do with the Windows command prompt...), or using Shift+Insert as an alternate to Ctrl + v.
