Environment data

VS Code version: 1.15.0
Python Extension version: 0.7.0

Actual behavior

After selecting an area of code and the option to "Run selection/line in Python terminal", code is copied into the terminal, but not from the start of the selection.

Repeatedly trying to "Run selection/line in Python terminal", after closing the terminal each time results in the code copied into the terminal starting at different points each time.

Expected behavior

All the code is copied into the Python terminal

Steps to reproduce:

• Select some code
• Right click
• Click "Run selection/line in Python terminal"

This only occurs when the integrated shell is set to Powershell. If it's set to cmd.exe, it doesn't occur

I was also unable to reproduce this under Linux.
