I've done that (we all did), but "can't reproduce". So this seems to depend a lot on the emulator, eg. I'm using Konsole, which is superb, and don't see that problem there.


Konsole is the only emulator I've used (other than actual tty) that doesn't have this problem. It's actually been frustrating, becasue there is plenty about it that I don't like.

I'll be giving Alacritty a try shortly - if it does what it says on the tin, it's exactly what I've been looking for.


Terminal.app seems to handle this case just fine as well.


Thanks, though I've been on linux for the last couple of years.

On the mac side I had other performance issues with Terminal.app (particularly when using all of widescreen + tmux - lots of flicker during move/refresh operations). iTerm2 did well for me though, iirc.


Curious: What don't you like about Konsole?


The only real issue I run into is clipboard wonkiness when console apps integrate the clipboard (nvim+twmux).

Beyond that, it has a ton of features - none of which I use since I manage my sessions with tmux. So I guess it's mostly a matter of not wanting a sledgehammer when the right tool is a finishing hammer?


I use nvim inside Konsole/Yakuake and I don't have any issue with the clipboard. "+p and "+y works fine Also Shift+Inst and Shift+Supr keeps working fine.


Add to the mix Yakuake. It uses Konsole inside.
