Why does this project rely on native apps for clipboard intergration?

[ItIsApachee]

Why not use OSC 52 (escape sequence) to copy to system clipboard instead?
This would work in all cases:

• locally
• remotely
• tmux both locally and remotely

[ItIsApachee]

At least an option to do that would be great. Writing a custom command might be possible, but is non-trivial (you would be responsible for escaping text) and might not even work.
On my remote host using ZVM_SYSTEM_CLIPBOARD_ENABLED=true together with ZVM_CLIPBOARD_COPY_CMD override does work, but I didn't manage to make it work by putting all the commands in .zshrc: for some reason export ZVM_SYSTEM_CLIPBOARD_ENABLED=true overrode ZVM_CLIPBOARD_COPY_CMD to its default value. But running export ZVM_CLIPBOARD_COPY_CMD=... after the shell had been initialized worked.

Tried to use zvm_config as well, but works strangely. Will provide more context if I decide to investigate, but would love to see escape sequence approach for copy and paste

Hi @ItIsApachee, thanks for your issue, sorry for the late reply as I'm quite busy. The OSC 52 feature has been supported now, and welcome to star this project for the further updates in the future. : )

[ItIsApachee]

Thanks for the feature! Managed to get it working. For some reason after my first attempt at pulling the repo to receive the feaure I still didn't have it, but after another try everything worked.
This issue should probably be closed now, right?

Though for some reason copying takes a significant amount of time for me.

Here is a screen recording. I was trying to copy as fast as possible, but felt that the copying took about a second
