I don't remember if I did any special config in iTerm or installed a nonstandard package (I don't believe I did), but in Mac I often find it easier to just pipe a result I want copied into the `pbcopy` command in order to capture it in the clipboard, rather than trying to highlight what may be a long output.

You are remembering correctly, pbcopy (and it’s partner pbpaste) are preinstalled on all Macs as part of the OS.
