wezterm/docs/config/lua/keyassignment/CopyTo.md
Wez Furlong 8dad34fa61 more configuration options for Copy/Paste
* Adds `CopyTo` and `PasteFrom` assignments that specify the
  destination/source.
* Adds `default_clipboard_copy_destination` and `default_paste_source`
  config options that specify the default destination/source for
  existing `Copy` and `Paste` operations (for @bew)
* Deprecating `PastePrimarySelection` in favor of `PasteFrom`.
* Added `CTRL-Insert` -> `Copy` (for @Babar)

Aside from the new key assignment, these changes shouldn't change
the default behavior, but do make it easier to consider changing
that in a later commit.

They should allow for example:

* Set `default_clipboard_copy_destination = "PrimarySelection"` to
  prevent populating the clipboard by default when using the mouse.
* Overriding the CTRL-Insert, CTRL-SHIFT-C to explicitly populate
  the clipboard
* Set `default_paste_source = "PrimarySelection"` for middle click
  to paste the selection.
* Overriding SHIFT-Insert, CTRL-SHIFT-V to explicitly paste from
  the clipboard.
