> Who … uses insert regularly?
Me for Shift+Inserting my X Primary selection (eg. HN block quotes. Virtually every single time I ever try to use any non-free OS I end up highlighting something, (Control|Alt|Command)+Tabbing, Shift+Inserting or middle-clicking, and hating my painful life when I realize I have to tab back and manually copy the text with a keyboard chord or dragging down a menu).
- __MatrixMan__ 6y agoHa, that's a good point. The feeling of inserting the primary buffer is so natural that I forgot it exists. And the feeling of trying to use it and not having it--it's so bad I guess I blocked out. Shift insert aside, a raw insert is a rare thing--until you tie it to zsh-autosuggestions
- devenvdev 6y agoMy company is forcing using macs, the lack of ability to highlight something and middle click later was the biggest disappointment. I could arrange a TWM, workspaces, etc with Amethyst (I used i3 on Linux), but no solution whatsoever for middle click out there. edit: typo
