That's all fine, but why not use kubectl's excellent tab completion?

    kubectl delete pod <tab>

and it lists the pods.

For bash or zsh:

    source <(kubectl completion $(basename $SHELL))

That's a fair point! The kubernetes example I gave is somewhat contrived, but I will say that I prefer to have whatever resource id I'm working with in my clipboard vs. relying on myself to select the correct one in a tab completion menu.

Where I really like this tmux copy/paste workflow is for grabbing multiple lines of command output. From there I can paste that into some message on slack, or use it as the body of a PR message that describes some error or shows some output.

For the latter case, I have a zsh function that calls `hub` to open a PR, drops me off into vim, and once I `:wq`, it will send the API request to open the PR, and then open my browser up to it. This is the command I have in the function: `hub pull-request --push --file "$filename" --browse --draft`.
