Save your settings and connect and you should get a result like that.

 

 

Once connected, then you need to login in.

Sometimes you might get an error caused by a wrong character somewhere in the console, just press key Enter, and try to writte your command again.

in this example, i formated the result of core show hints, there's no <crlf> in this result.
