Alacritty onedark8/18/2023 ![]() ![]() Workaround 1: vim mode: G, terminal mode: Ctrl - max zoom out, Shift mouse, Shift Page down if more than one page You seem not to be able to mark all and copy from Alacritty, therefore, the answer is just that there is no answer. The workarounds below are older, no need to read, and I guess I am also wrong there in saying that there is no answer. Start with Ctrl B [, mark what you want to copy by pressing Space to begin with and "y" when you are done, and it will be in the system clipboard. In the Tmux config, the binding for "y" would be: bind -T copy-mode-vi y send -X copy-pipe "xclip -selection c" In Alacritty, you will now have tmux power, as well as in any other terminal. Instead, I ended up in installing Tmux on top of Alacritty, and that is the waterproof way of copying whatever from Alacritty to wherever. I did not test any self-written bindings in the Alacritty config that I could share. Take that binding pattern and make your own binding. See: How can I copy text from Alacritty to clipboard #5202. This includes the ctrl shift c/v bindings for copy/paste. # If it is not installed, install it withīindings in Alacritty are documented in the alacritty.yml. Install a clipboard like xclip or xsel: # Check whether xclip is installed: If that does not help, bind the system clipboard to a key of your choice. \# When set to `true`, selected text will be copied to the primary clipboard. Search for #save_to_clipboard: false, and change to true: \#selection If that does not work, for example since the server does not have or allow copying to the system clipboard, check whether it helps to change the alacritty.yml config file in the main folder of Alacritty. Either this was changed, or I have just overseen it, or it does not always work, I do not understand why it is not in the older workarounds further below. UPDATE 20221006: Alacritty built-in shortcutsĪs far as I can see from tests, you can press Ctrl Shift Space for vim mode, then use vim's ggVG to mark all, and Alacritty-copy with Ctrl Shift C into the system clipboard. Is there a way to get the whole Alacritty terminal history (not just the commands, but also the text of the files that were opened) copied? Ctrl A in normal mode (not in Ctrl Shift Space vim mode).I can then copy with Ctrl Shift C but the clipboard is cut at 524 lines when I paste it in the standard Linux editor. No matter whether you mark only some text or the whole, you can still change the selection with the right-click without losing the start marker. By this, everything from first to last item gets marked. You can use ggVG to mark the whole terminal history. If you want to get to the first item, just press g. Then use Shift Page up to scroll up and left-click on the first item, scroll down with Shift Page down and right-click on the last item that I want to mark. To mark text of the terminal, the workaround is to press Ctrl Shift Space to get all of the vim commands activated for the full terminal. I installed Alacritty that uses vim to show files but embeds text in the terminal text so that I can copy whatever text from even ssh servers or terminals that do not have a system clipboard, and the terminal commands can be copied together with the file text that was opened from the terminal.
