Thanks for this, I'm now got to the stage of highlighting it, then
press ENTER and 'tmux saveb -' and it pastes itself into the same pane!
It doesn't get as far as the clipboard, which is still showing 'Do
"tmux saveb -" to send it to stdout, or just paste it into emacs or
something with C-b ].' and that’s pasted into emacs too!
Just for clarity in case its relevant I'm using 'tmux version 1.9'
which is up-to-date with the git repo.
Thanks
Sharon.
