I appreciate that tmux has theoretical advantages over screen, but man does the implementation suck. On Mac it still seems like there's no way to copy text if you have mouse mode on (at least in code-server).
- adamors 6mo agoSelect copies, what do you mean?
- post-it 6mo agoNot for me. Some kind of OSC 52 problem.
- ihowlatthemoon 6mo agoMaybe you could try this - https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-yank https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-yank
- post-it 6mo agoI haven't tried it, but it looks like it just calls pbcopy, which won't work in a browser. There's no programmatic way to do it, because tmux can't access the clipboard.
- szopa 6mo agoYeah, that really sucks. I couldn’t quite believe what was the case and spent many hours trying to debug it.
- ramses0 6mo agoOften, holding down "Shift" while making mouse selections will "break through" and let you get at the O.S. copy/paste/selection mechanism. Highly terminal dependent, though!
- post-it 6mo agoNot in browsers, unfortunately. Both my work and Home Assistant OS use tmux in a browser tty, and I have to turn off mouse mode to copy.
- chasd00 6mo agoI was wondering about tmux vs screen (+splitvt) but didn’t want to ask. What are the advantages?
