I've been using GNU Screen for close to 3 years and find it immensely useful. For such a robust and flexible program I find its cut and paste functionality a little basic.
Has anyone found a better way to use the cut and paste features besides the default settings? These include:
- Better cut/paste and hardstatus integration
- More recall than only the previously cut text
- Easier keybindings

2Screen has cut and paste? I just use the copy/paste features of my terminal program. – Greg Hewgill – 2010-07-25T21:44:51.870

@DougHarris: Also see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/70614/gnu-screen-survival-guide/70765#70765 for the commands that I actually use in screen. Turns out I use the "copy" feature for scrollback, but not copying.
