Or on older versions just select all the text in copy mode then paste it into
emacs or some text editor and save the file. Or use tmux saveb. Why is this so
hard?

I feel like we're going round in circles here, from what I've read in the
other thread.
Which version of tmux is this on? Git (1.9)? If so, I think when you say
"whole buffer" here, you're probably wanting to capture the entire pane (see
capture-pane, with the -S and -E options).
Getting the contents of that in to the clipboard, if that's even what you
want now (given that again, capturep can output the result to STDOUT), is
down to tools like xclip, etc., but if the content is in a file, what
difference would it make?
