I run my simh instances on Raspbian (Raspberry Pi). I access them with 
PuTTY on my Windows laptop. Whenever I first need to send a (hobbyist) 
license file, the following has alwas worked for me.

1. Configure the simh console as a listening port
	SET CONSOLE TELNET=20003
	SET CONSOLE BUFFERED

2. Connect (Putty) to your simh host, port 20003 and log in to VMS

3. Open in Windows Notepad the license text file, and put it in the 
paste buffer (CTRL/A, CTRL/C)

4. On VMS, start the TPU editor on a new (.COM) file

5. Paste into the empty TPU screen.

Other editors did not always work. Apparently, TPU-generated  I/O is 
slightly different, and allows input of large text files.
