Thank you everyone for your helpful responses. Initially I was trying to synchonize with keyboard shortcuts on my Macbook (i.e., use Vim + Tmux similarly across all operating systems), but it proved unfruitful due to complications around remapping the Command key on MacOS. I was also trying to use mouse mode in Tmux which was adding to my frustrations...
I am now quite happy with my setup on OpenBSD and I'll be pasting excerpts from my CWM/Xterm/Tmux/Vim config files here: ~/.cwmrc bind-key 4-l lock bind-key C-Left group-rcycle bind-key C-Right group-cycle unbind-key M-Left unbind-key M-Right ~/.Xdefaults XTerm*selectToClipboard:true ~/.tmux.conf #set -g mouse on #setw -g mode-keys vi # Copy / Paste #bind-key -T copy-mode-vi C-c send-keys -X copy-pipe-and-cancel "xclip -selection clipboard;" # no longer needed with mouse mode disabled bind-key -n C-v run "xclip -out -selection clipbard | tmux load-buffer -; tmux paste-buffer;" # Resize Panes bind -n C-w resize-pane -U 5 bind -n C-s resize-pane -D 5 bind -n C-a resize-pane -L 5 bind -n C-d resize-pane -R 5 ~/.vimrc set expandtab set shiftwidth=4 set tabstop=4 syntax on Respectfully, David Anthony On Mon, 2021-07-12 at 17:12 -0400, David Anthony wrote: > Hello, > > Does anyone using the combination of CWM+Xterm+Tmux+Vim have any advice > for dealing with Copy/Paste?
