+## Tmux-like
+
+While term.js has always supported copy/paste using the mouse, it now also
+supports several keyboard based solutions for copy/paste.
+
+term.js includes a tmux-like selection mode (enabled with the `screenKeys`
+option) which makes copy and paste very simple. `Ctrl-A` enters `prefix` mode,
+from here you can type `Ctrl-V` to paste. Press `[` in prefix mode to enter
+selection mode. To select text press `v` (or `space`) to enter visual mode, use
+`hjkl` to navigate and create a selection, and press `Ctrl-C` to copy.
+
+`Ctrl-C` (in visual mode) and `Ctrl-V` (in prefix mode) should work in any OS
+for copy and paste. `y` (in visual mode) will work for copying only on X11
+systems. It will copy to the primary selection.
+
+Note: `Ctrl-C` will also work in prefix mode for the regular OS/browser
+selection. If you want to select text with your mouse and copy it to the
+clipboard, simply select the text and type `Ctrl-A + Ctrl-C`, and
+`Ctrl-A + Ctrl-V` to paste it.
+
+For mac users: consider `Ctrl` to be `Command/Apple` above.
