yank via mosh & tmux working on command line, but not interactively via tmux commands

[erwin]

I was using xsel to handle copying screen elements in tmux, but I'm trying to move to your yank script so I don't have to deal with the X11 variables...

It works fine on the command line...

/usr/bin/mosh my_system --no-init tmux
echo foo | yank

Then CLTR+SHIFT+V and "foo" is pasted in... Exactly what I hope for.

However, replacing the xsel -i entries in ~/.tmux.conf with yank > #{pane_tty} doesn't seem to be working for me...

Even the default setting you suggested isn't working for me:

# transfer copied text to attached terminal with yank
bind-key -T copy-mode-vi Y send-keys -X copy-pipe 'yank > #{pane_tty}'

I've checked $PATH, I've checked the permissions for yank, checked the versions of tmux and mosh...

Tmux is 3.3a
Mosh is 1.4.0

I'm probably missing something obvious.

Please let me know if you've got any idea how to further troubleshoot this!

same problem, @erwin did you find a solution?

edit: ended up compiling mosh from PR 1104 works well

brew install autoconf automake

git clone https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh && cd mosh && gh pr checkout 1104 && ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make

mosh --client=/Users/chris/mosh/mosh-client --server=/Users/chris/mosh/mosh-server server

and adjusting tmux.conf

set -g set-clipboard on

I couldn't make this work with vanilla mosh-1.4.0 even though it claims clipboard copy support

my stack:
==> alacritty: 0.15.0
==> tmux: stable 3.5a
==> mosh: stable 1.4.0 (this didn't work)
