    So, it seems this feature is still missing. Has anyone requested for it to be added to the next version of Terminator?

The quickest way to select all / select specific text in Gnome Terminator:




  1. Click at the start of the text you want to select

  2. Scroll the window to the end of the text you want select


  3. Shift + click the end of your selection

  4. All text between your first click and your last Shift + click is now selected

  5. Then you can Ctrl + Shift + C your selection out of there


It's not a keyboard shortcut, but it's a lot faster than click-and-drag to select text, that's for sure.

    No Shortcut, use Mouse: click on Menu -> Select All



    Only true for Program: Terminal

      There is no Menu Bar in my Terminator window. In the Context/Right-Click Menu only Copy and Paste is available

    I don't have the menu bar, nor the option to show it. So I have this workaround:




    1. Shift + Home

    2. Select the first line

    3. Shift + End

    4. Shift + click on the last character

        (This depends on terminal/distro - what worked for me with huge output):



        start selecting with mouse and then press PgUp/PgDn
