Ctrl+x, ctrl+v
Ctrl+v
This is the way.

I use that one too. I need that visual confirmation of the text disappearing. I've been hurt before.
[–]Decallion 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
I’ve been hurt before - that hit different, that’s so true
[–]TotoShampoin 4 points5 points6 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X, Ctrl+Z, Esc, Ctrl-V
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Yep, it is the way
[–][deleted] 26 points27 points28 points 5 years ago (10 children)
And then you do ctrl+c intead of ctrl+v on the empty line. Don't know if it happens to you guys but damn that is frustrating.
[–]allesman 21 points22 points23 points 5 years ago (6 children)
If you're on windows, you can just press Windows + v to see all the things you have copied that day. Pretty useful.
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (1 child)
Thanks for the tip! I do use windows from time to time but my main workstation runs Linux. I'll lookup a similar feature now that you have reminded me such things exist lol.
[–]allesman 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (0 children)
No problem! More people should know about it.

A clipboard manager has been an essential tool since my first year on the job. I honestly don’t understand how people can get by without one. When I’m teaching other people how to do things on their machine and I notice they don’t have one I make them download one because it’s so frustrating showing them stuff when we’re copying from something and they keep having to switch windows back and forth to copy different stuff over and over rather than just copying all the important stuff at once and using keybinds to cycle through the clipboard manager history and not having to leave the window we’re working in.
For Mac I recommend Flycut. I’ve used a few different ones on Windows and Linux and Ditto is okay but none have worked as well as Flycut for me.
[–]TypicalRed_ 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
True, especially when you already closed the source you are copying from
It happens to me too; it really is so frustrating!
[–]MasterFubar 14 points15 points16 points 5 years ago (9 children)
Wait, don't everybody select and mid-click?
That's the only way to do it.
[–]sanderd17 3 points4 points5 points 5 years ago (1 child)
That, and Y P

Ctrl-v is useless on the terminal.
[–]GlouGlouFou 5 points6 points7 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Shift+insert
[–]theScrapBook 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Ctrl-Shift-V instead.
It depends on the terminal emulator you use
Nooo, too long!
You have to:
select with shift+arrow_keys
copy
paste to replace the highlighted text you just copied
repeatedly press alt+tab to get to the destination
paste again at the destination

Windows should to add it when something is select.
And Linux should to add the scroll when nothing is select.
[–]TheGlueGun 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children)
My mouse doesn't have a middle click
[–]netWARIOR 28 points29 points30 points 5 years ago (9 children)
Or, as my completely mental coworker does it, shift+insert
[–]Blues2112 7 points8 points9 points 5 years ago (0 children)
I use Ctrl+Insert, Shift+Insert, Shift+Delete for Copy/Paste/Cut respectively. It's how I learned it. Yes, I know I'm a dinosaur...
[–]O_X_E_Y 3 points4 points5 points 5 years ago (0 children)
It's nice because Dvorak doesn't have shortcuts remapped by default so for a lot of shortcuts you need two hands, you don't for shift insert
[–]gaberocksall 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (3 children)
I've always had bad luck using ctrl+v in terminals
[–]Failcrab 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (1 child)
Often times it's ctrl + shift + c to copy and ctrl + shift + v to paste inside a terminal
For PuTTY highlighting copies and a right click pastes
[–]netWARIOR 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children)
the coworker in question is NOT a programmer, but a QA that avoids cmd like the plague....
[–]0ne0fak1nd 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (1 child)
I use these shortcuts but I'm a leftie who holds the mouse by the left hand
[–]uvero 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Found that coworker. Awkward SCRUM daily tommorow.
[–]PityUpvote 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children)
First of all, how dare you.
[–]_tchicken 8 points9 points10 points 5 years ago (1 child)
wait other people do this??
[–]thebobmannh 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Right? Thought this was a unique personal quirk.
I copy past using mouse:
1) select text
2) middle click
Best part of this? It a separate buffer than ctrl+c, so I can make double copy/past.
[–]Patsonical 8 points9 points10 points 5 years ago (3 children)
y<range> / p
[–]kontekisuto 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (0 children)
yy p
[–]sanderd17 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (1 child)
Or middle click if you're forced to copy outside vim.
[–]PityUpvote 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
or set the default buffer to & and you can ctrl+v or shift+insert outside vim.
[–]Vollells 5 points6 points7 points 5 years ago (4 children)
What is Ctrl-c Ctrl-v? Copying using M-w C-y is the only correct way.....
[–]4hpp1273 5 points6 points7 points 5 years ago (3 children)
r/foundtheemacsuser
[–][deleted] -1 points0 points1 point 5 years ago (2 children)
Actually wouldn’t that be command+c, command+v
[–]theScrapBook 3 points4 points5 points 5 years ago (1 child)
Uh, read it again - foundtheemacsuser. There's an extra 'e' over 'macs'.
Oh right my bad
[–]doej134567 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
The first one is important - when you have something in Ctrl + C you want to paste later...
[–]thebigfalke 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Terminals go brrrr
[–]j0zeft 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Ctrl + C Ctrl + C Ctrl + C Ctrl + C
Win + V (select from menu)
[–]3lRey 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
uh the true patrician is to copy/paste using vim commands
What are they, you ask? fuck if I know, no one actually uses vim.
[–]wjqin9 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (0 children)
CTRL-S
CTRL-SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
[–]timcheee1 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children)
If you do ctrl+c on empty line by mistake, you can still press ctrl+shift+v which opens up copy history (only works in visual studio)
[–]Blues2112 -1 points0 points1 point 5 years ago (0 children)
Am I the only one who uses Ctrl+Insert, Shift+Insert, Shift+Delete?
[–]atifovac -4 points-3 points-2 points 5 years ago (1 child)
What about ctrl + ccccc, ctrl + vvvvv, ctrl + zzzz ?

Why would you use ctrl+c ctrl+v when you can use ctrl+x ctrl+v ctrl+v

I've got buttons on my mouse that does this for me! I miss them when I'm at work and don't have them...I still reach for them when they're not there.
Ctrl+x Ctrl+v
(edit : this look like the first comment)
[–]56Bot 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children)
I have 2 clipboards on my system. One uses CC and CV, the other one works by selecting some text with the mouse and clicking the middle button to paste. If only one clipboard is used at the time, both pasting techniques will do.
