Bracketed copy/paste is completely broken. Please add a menu option to disable this antifeature.

Thanks for filing an issue! Please answer the questions below so I can help you.

  • iTerm2 version:
  • OS version:
  • Attach com.googlecode.iterm2.plist here (drag-drop from finder into this window)
  • Attach a debug log, if possible. Instructions at https://iterm2.com/debuglog
  • Are you reporting a performance issue, excessive CPU usage, or a hang? Please attach a sample. Instructions at https://gitlab.com/gnachman/iterm2/wikis/HowToSample
  • Are you reporting a crash? Please attach the crash log. Instructions at https://gitlab.com/gnachman/iterm2/wikis/crash-logs
  • Are you reporting excessive memory usage? Please attach a heap analysis: https://gitlab.com/gnachman/iterm2/wikis/heapshot

Detailed steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. Open Vim or otherwise cause the bracketed-paste escape sequence to be sent to ITerm2
  2. Try to copy something using ⌘C
  3. Try to paste it into a non-iTerm2 window with ⌘V

What happened:

⌘C didn't do anything. Nothing was copied to the clipboard.

What should have happened:

⌘C should have copied the selection to the MacOS clipboard.

Bracketed pasting never works anywhere, and the best option is to just disable it!
