Mosh is so good, but their unwillingness to implement OSC52 for copying to clipboard sent me back to tmux.

Eternal Terminal works as well as Mosh for me and supports OSC52. I switched to et in order to sync my remote tmux clipboard with my local clipboard.

I think this actually works now, I use both tmux and mosh and can copy things fine. See e.g. https://gist.github.com/yudai/95b20e3da66df1b066531997f982b5...

Don't know the context for that snippet you're sharing, but the issue for OSC 52 support for clipboard syncing is marked as `Open` in the Mosh repo https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh/issues/637

To be fair I haven't tested mosh without tmux, I always have tmux running. So I guess the situation is that it's possible to make it work with tmux, but maybe mosh on its own doesn't support OSC52. Which for me is good enough.
