Nevermind. Just found my answer. In Putty, you just shift+mousedrag. Text is automatically copied into the clipboard with no additional keystrokes or clicks.
For those ones running mc in text console (Alt-F1) with mc in repo still having no support of X clipboard, maybe this short script would be usefull: http://denis.ryzhkov.org/soft/xclip-sync-mcedit/xclip-sync-mcedit.py It runs in background syncing clipboards of X and mcedit completely automatically.
Consider giving far2l a try, it has mc-like user interface and supports clipobard well (even through ssh if far2l is also installed on the server side). https://github.com/elfmz/far2l
What are you using for a terminal here?
ReplyDeleteIn my case I'm trying to get mcedit text into Windows clipboard. Using Putty as terminal.
