Hey @omerls-pw Thanks for letting us know. I was able to reproduce this with both vim and vi. I'll let the team know and we'll update this thread with any changes or questions. As a possible workaround, you can still right-click copy when using cat instead of vim.
To anyone else facing this issue, please add a 👍 to the original post at the top or comment with your details, and subscribe if you'd like to be notified.
Hi @dannyneira
Thanks for confirming it.
Unfortunately, right-click doesn't work too.
In Neovim, can't copy either. Paste works though! I'd map it inside Neovim, but can't map 'cmd' inside Neovim using Warp either it seems, but that's maybe for another Issue.
in neovim
copy (using cmd + C) is not working as of today, version v0.2025.01.2.08.02_stable_03
I can use right click > copy and cmd + V
everything works fine out of neovim.
