Terminal.writeContentsSync

Write contents of the current contents of terminal (including any scrollback history) to stream according to flags.

If cancellable is not NULL, then the operation can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED will be returned in error.

This is a synchronous operation and will make the widget (and input processing) during the write operation, which may take a long time depending on scrollback history and stream availability for writing.
