local wezterm = require 'wezterm';
return {
  keys = {
    {key="v", mods="SHIFT|CTRL", action="PastePrimarySelection"},
  },

  -- Middle mouse button pastes the primary selection.
  mouse_bindings = {
    {
      event={Up={streak=1, button="Middle"}},
      mods="NONE",
      action="PastePrimarySelection",
    },
  }
}
