At the moment there are two ways to select and copy text:

  • Using Ctrl + RightMouseDrag or Ctrl + MiddleMouseDrag - the selected rectangular area will be copied with all graphical attributes (SGR) to the clipboard. It requires OSC 52 support from your terminal.
  • Using Shift + LeftDrag - select and copy using the functionality of your terminal emulator. Some terminals may have a different selection/copy configuration than this.

Copying the text inside the built-in vtm terminal is not done yet. You can track it here #149.
