Any ideas on transferring code into LisaEm

I am working on a personal project of mine. I am using VSCode with pascal libraries loaded on my Linux laptop. I am doing it this way because I want to get all the help I can get since it has been nearly 40 years since I have touched pascal. I do understand that the version of Pascal used with Lisa is 'vintage' (i.e. really old) so I have been using Google AI to get the Basic to Pascal translations suitable for Lisa Workshop. The problem comes in is I have not been able to copy/paste small snippets of code from the internet directly into Lisa workshop, so I am kind of at a loss how to migrate the code from one machine to another.

Any input would be appreciated.
Thank you for the time.

These threads (and others perhaps) may contain tidbits/ideas that could help or narrow down the problem:

The LOS and Workshop file systems have been "decoded"

Moving the many source files to the Lisa

I wrote that post. I have been using this approach quite a lot to do some software development in LisaEm and it works great. Everything is well documented and easy to use.

Another approach is https://github.com/arcanebyte/lisaem/blob/master/LisaEmAsASoftwareDevelopmentEnvironment.md#transferring-text-files-to-the-lisa-workshop-environment-overt-the-the-pseudo-tty-connection (I wrote this too), but setting up "Pseudo TTY" is a but more involved, and does not work on Windows.
