I just started using Console2 as an alternative to cmd.exe
I can't figure out how to copy text from the console to the clipboard -- dragging over it with the mouse won't mark anything, and there is no option in the right-click menu to "mark" as in cmd.exe
It must be terribly obvious but I guess I'm overlooking it... :(
Answer
Open Console2 menu Edit -> Settings, and in the Hotkeys / Mouse settings configure the selection and copy actions. The defaults are a bit wonky.
I use:
- Left mouse button = select
- Ctrl+C = copy
- Ctrl+V = paste
- ESC = clear selection
Make sure you press 'Assign' after each change you make otherwise it won't take effect.
Last note: Beware if you use ESC or Ctrl+V in vim, or in any other app.
