From microsoft/terminal#12097 ## Buffer Exporting ### Export Buffer This allows the user to export the text of the buffer to a file. If the file doesn't exist, it will be created. If the file already exists, its contents will be replaced with the Terminal buffer text. **Command name:** `exportBuffer` **Default bindings:** ```json { "command": { "action": "exportBuffer" } }, ``` #### Actions | Name | Necessity | Accepts | Description | | ---- | --------- | ------- | ----------- | | `path` | Optional | String | If provided, then the Terminal will export the buffer contents to the given file. Otherwise, the Terminal will open a file picker to choose the file to export to. | > [!IMPORTANT] > This feature is only available in [Windows Terminal Preview](https://aka.ms/terminal-preview).

This adds an action for the context menu entry we added in #11062. That PR added support for exporting the buffer, exclusively through the tab item's context menu. This adds an action that can additionally be bound, which also can export the buffer to a file. This action accepts a
pathparam. If empty/ommitted, then the Terminal will prompt for the file to export the buffer to.exportBufferaction (1.13) MicrosoftDocs/terminal#479
