Copy to pasteboard on selection fails to copy even though text is clearly selected.
When using the mouse to select text to be 'copied on select' it doesn't always get copied to the 'pasteboard.'
- iTerm2 version = Build 3.0.15
- OS version = OSX/MacOS 10.12.4
This has been happening for years over several versions of iterm & iterm2, multiple Macs & OSX versions.
Behavior, simple but somewhat rare: I select text with the mouse (the text remains highlighted) but when I go to paste what I just selected I get whatever was on the clipboard - the copy on select had failed. Not sure how often this happens - at least 1 in 50. I haven't deleted my entire file system yet pasting in unexpected text but luck only lasts so long.
Environment bits: I typically ssh to a gnu screen session (with and without a hard status line) but unfortunately I have no information if screen effects this behavior. No active elements on the screen, no clocks, active output, etc. This happens with Apple magic mouse and mice with wheels.
Assume I'm not the only one? Thanks
Misc bits fwiw: TERM=xterm-256color (I think it also did it back when I used vt102), standard bash shell with a typical PS1 & reasonable PROMPT_COMMAND. Screen version 4.03.01.
