Can't copy/paste bug examples

[thams]

On mac running xsh under iTerm, I did xsh -e

which leads to an error screen and a backtrace. I want to paste that backtrace here in a bug report, but I can't select, copy and paste the block of text. Any attempt to right-click and Copy copies only one word.

Would appreciate help on how to do copy of a block of text, or to write out the screen to a file.

xiki uses emacs, you need to configure your ~/.emacs to support shared clipboard.

In iTerm you can hold down option to select text to copy and paste, to override the broken mouse terminal integration. At somepoint I'll upgrade the installer to let people explicitly enable mouse support to avoid this.

Option key works. Closing this ticket and opening a new one with the actual bug, now that I can report it.
