Keep selected text in each tab
@egmontkob
Submitted by Egmont Koblinger Link to original bug (#759404)
Description
- Gnome-terminal:
-
Switch to tab1, highlight some text (let's say "text1"), Ctrl+Shift+C to copy to the clipboard, paste it somewhere else.
-
Switch to tab2, highlight some text (let's say "text2"), Ctrl+Shift+C, paste it somewhere.
-
Switch back to tab1, the selection is gone. You need to highlight "text1" again to be able to copy-paste it.
- Konsole, iTerm2, Mac's default terminal too if I recall correctly, Firefox, Chrome:
1., 2. as above.
- Switch back to tab1. "text1" is still highlighted, pressing Ctrl+Shift+C copies to the clipboard without having to highlight it again.
I find this behavior really convenient and saves me a lot of time during my daily work on iterm.
