Please just give thumbs up on the top issue to prevent spam :) Shouldn't this behaviour be entirely controlled by the terminal emulator (app), rather than by zellij? |
While that would be nice, I fear it would no longer be possible to click and drag the selection beyond the currently visible area (i.e. drag up and have Zellij scroll up while selecting text)... |
The terminal app does normally provide this functionality (and every terminal I've used has it), but you have to disable zellij's |
Triple click to select an entire line is also useful for the same reasons |
If this is hard to implement, it would be a good idea to make the fullscreen borderless, this will allow the use of the terminal selection (typically with shift) with double and triple click without the border characters. |
Yes, we definitely need Zellij to support double-click to select words, and drag to extend the selection. As part of that, we would need the ability to define the character set for delimiting 'word' boundaries. |
I find this enough for me in Windows Terminal. |

I see myself prefer the shift+click selection mode of my terminal emulator, because I can use double-click to select whole words. Double clicking and dragging selects the word under the cursor and extends the selection word-wise.
This reduces the need to aim the cursor at character precision, which is very comfortable.
I need to reach out to zellij's selection only when I want to copy multiple lines, where the pane borders get in the way would I use the terminal's selection.
It would be nice for zellij to support the described double-clicking behaviour as well.
