fix(tmux): use native OSC 52 for SSH clipboard copy#71
Merged
Conversation
…64 pipe The manual base64 | xargs printf pipeline broke clipboard copy on remote tmux sessions because Linux base64 wraps at 76 chars, causing xargs to generate multiple incomplete OSC 52 sequences. Additionally, /dev/tty may not be available in tmux server's daemonized copy-pipe subprocess. Replace with copy-selection-and-cancel and rely on tmux's native OSC 52 mechanism (set-clipboard external + terminal-features clipboard) which handles encoding and delivery correctly.
