pbcopy

• CLI/Tool
  • What is the correct way to copy command output with pbcopy? Card
    • Use a pipe, for example: git show 84f0092:journals/2026_04_23.md | pbcopy
    • > pbcopy is a redirection, so it writes to a file named pbcopy instead of sending text to the macOS clipboard.
    • Verify the clipboard contents with pbpaste.
    • If clipboard behavior still seems wrong, tmux can be part of the problem, but first confirm the shell command itself is correct.
