Hi list, The popular tmux software has implemented (in the master branch of its git repo) some new functionality making use of some older xterm functionality that hadn't been much used:
The ability to use the OSC 52 escape sequence to make the tmux clipboard available to the outer terminal emulator. This means that the tmux selection mode/clipboard can be shared back (even without any kind of forwarding) to the local terminal emulator, which can then use that to set the X or Wayland clipboard. I have already implemented this in both the X and Wayland versions of suckless's st (simple terminal) terminal emulator. I'd like to implement it in the GNOME libvte widget as well, but before I bother writing a patch, I'd like to know if this is a contribution you'd be willing to accept (perhaps allowing it to be enabled as a preference). Terminal Emulators supporting OSC 52 clipboard setting: xterm (u)rxvt (patch pending approval on suckless-hackers mailing list) st (X version) (available in the 'selection' branch) st (unofficial Wayland version) (https://github.com/michaelforney/st/tree/selection) mintty (for windows) Thanks for your help. Cheers, Harry _______________________________________________ gnome-utils-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-utils-list
