Not every terminal supports this.\n\nThe message shown after copying used to always say the text was sent via OSC 52. In some cases it now says it couldn't copy and tells you to select with a certain key held, then use your terminal's own Copy command. The colour of the message also changes depending on the case.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe message is more accurate in terminals where this copying method does not work.\n\n- Area: Clipboard\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
