Not sure if this was available from the beginning, but Ghostty has the ability to do exactly that with what they call "performable" keybindings

Oh wow, I'm already using ghostty and didn't know about this. It works great, thanks!

Ooh, seconded, will try right away.

[EDIT]: so ... tried it ... very, very nice BUT:

what of CTRL-V ???

You can do the same with ctrl+v, just use paste_from_clipboard

		> You can do the same with ctrl+v, just use paste_from_clipboard Yeah, but CTRL+V is actually used e.g. in VIM. And I can't see a way for ghostty to "guess" what to do based on context like it does in the case something is selected. Sorry, should have explained better.

Hope Kovid Goyal gets inspired by this

Kitty also has it, I didn't know prior to today
