Hello, I think a yank-buffer command would be useful for taking an existing tmux buffer and writing its contents out to the clipboard via OSC 52.
For instance, I sometimes need to copy the contents of an older buffer to my system clipboard, so I run choose-buffer to interactively select the older buffer I want to copy and then copy its contents via OSC 52: # using https://github.com/sunaku/home/blob/master/bin/yank script bind-key -n M-Y choose-buffer \ 'run-shell "tmux save-buffer -b \"%%\" - | yank > #{pane_tty}"' With a yank-buffer command, I could forgo the external OSC 52 logic and simply rely on tmux's existing OSC 52 capabilities to perform the copy: bind-key -n M-Y choose-buffer 'yank-buffer -b "%%"' What do you think? If this seems reasonable, I can attempt a patch. Thanks for your consideration. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tmux-users" group.
