Hi!

I have a following problem: When I try to paste long input to my command-line app, only few first lines are pasted.

I see, that I Can copy that to apps like TextWrangler, TextEdit.

What Can I do?

How long is "long"? Could there have been hard returns in your copied text?

If you find you cannot paste it in the Terminal, can you still paste the same text into your text editor?
