Bug ID: 507399
Summary: Add an option to always copy highlighted text to
clipboard
Classification: Applications
Product: konsole
Version First 25.07.80
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: copy-paste

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
vim and neovim have a problem that they integrate very poorly with system
clipboard. They require several keypresses to copy and when in a remote session
it gets even trickier. To fix this I propose that konsole implements a setting
to always copy highlighted text to PRIMARY clipboard, no matter if the terminal
session is local or ssh'd to remote. This way I can highlight text with my
mouse and not worry whether or not it ends in my clipboard.
