There are so many garbage characters in the following:
https://training.linuxfoundation.org/cm/LFS272/Commands/Lab1.txt
for example:
curl -fsSL ​https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg​ | sudo apt-key add -

Can this be rectified?

    We will look into it and fix it. Until then you can always use the lab exercises provided in the course to copy the commands from.

    @Paolo Marin As mentioned above, you can use the lab pdfs to copy the commands from, until the resource files will be fixed.

    Do you know how difficult and prone to errors is to copy and paste from pdf to a terminal?

    @Paolo Marin You can always copy the commands from the pdf, paste them first in a simple text editor and then paste it in the terminal. This will keep the pasted command clean.

    @Paolo Marin Actually, please use the LFS272 Commands and YAMLExcerpts.tar.gz file from https://training.linuxfoundation.org/cm/LFS272/. This has the same files as the Commands/ one, but they are uncorrupted.
