Copy from macOS iTerm2 > Tmux > Micro #2428

Description of the problem or steps to reproduce

Hi, I searched around Google but couldn't find a working answer. Going so far as reinstalling an xserver on macOS with brew and exporting display using -Y to forward it trough ssh unsecurely to no avail. I can't get copy to work from inside Micro inside a Tmux session on my iTerm2 Client. I have mouse-reporting enabled, and in-fact I can copy just fine from just tmux itself (Text is selected in yellow, and on release it copy just fine and report it back to macOS correctly, even if it's a remote SSH session). So my guess is that it struggle to go one level below (micro) and report it to tmux which has to report it back to iTerm2 client.

Thanks a lot for reading.

You can try as a workaround on MacOS to keep key pressed while selecting text with mouse -- not perfect, but still better than nothing.

Which key should I try to keep pressed ? Thanks

dimitrik-fr commented 2 years ago

Seems like Github messed-up the original input text ;-)) keep "Opt" (Option) key pressed while selecting text -- it should just work.

Thanks, it seems to work. Great workaround for now. Would you know if it’s an iTerm2 feature ? If so, is there a way to change the key (instead of Alt/OPT, I would like to use an other key or combination), Thanks.
