I searched on ask Ubuntu and found a similar question but the solution is not working for me. Here's the link:
tmux copy mode not working in ubuntu16.04
With tmux I try to use the feature (Copy & Paste: Scrollback Mode) but it's not working when I try to copy.
So from a bash session in tmux, I enter the tmux prefix Ctrl+b + [
then where it seems to not work is where I try to mark the beginning of the selection with Ctrl + space
or only space
. I tried Alt + w
to copy the selected text or pressed Enter
in vain.
Here's the content of my ~/tmux.conf file which I generated with tmux show -g | cat > ~/.tmux.conf
because I couldn't find it:
