On Linux, Control-C and Control-V don't work for copying and pasting in terminals. The Control modifier is used for its original purpose of inserting control codes. Instead, terminal apps require an extra Shift modifier, like Control+Shift+C.
But what if there were hidden shortcut combos for copy and paste
Had to look it up for you. I use (in kitty.conf):
map ctrl+c copy_and_clear_or_interrupt map ctrl+v paste_from_clipboardObviously you only need the first one for the copy bit but having paste as well is nice.
