Cannot paste into Helix or Neovim or Kakoune when using git version of Zellij
This has happened to me on MacOS 14.4 running kitty, iterm2, and terminal.
I have tried this with homebrew installed helix and my own local compiled version. No difference.
883855587c4c963f3037f287e5239e8cd297ab69 is the top most commit in the log.
Steps to reproduce:
- build zellij from git checkout -- cargo xtask dist is what I used.
- run this zellij
- start helix (you can run
brew install helixif you don't have it) - enter insert mode with 'i', just like vim.
- Press the usual Cmd+v to paste as normal on a Mac. In iterm2 I can see the Edit menu flash so it recognized the keys...
If I exit helix I can paste into the shell inside of zellij. If I start neovim installed from Homebrew I also cannot paste. Same thing, enter insert mode and Cmd+v does nothing. I just installed Kakoune from homebrew and again, cannot paste. However, if I use /usr/bin/vi I can paste. No problems. /usr/bin/vi is the older vim shipped with MacOS.
This all works just fine with the homebrew installed version of Zellij.
I had this issue and fixed it by setting
support_kitty_keyboard_protocol false in my config file, per https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/3383
Hey so - I'm unfortunately not able to reproduce this. It's possible that this issue only occurs on a mac due to pasting being done with the cmd key. I do not have access to a mac, so going to ask for some help here. Does it work when pasting in a different method? (eg. with the mouse)
Let me look at the current state of the tree and see if I can see anything. I have been using the brew version.
@imsnif Hi, Can confirm this issue no longer exist in latest main commit fe30f08.
Tested in neovim and helix, can paste.
Thanks @towry ! Any chance you know which commit fixed it? I'll be more calm if I understand what caused this issue.
