Is there a UNIX-style triple click to select path in Terminal.app?

Solution 1:

The shortcut for Terminal.app is ++doubleclick.

You might also be interested in the following shortcuts:

  • +K to clear the screen
  • ctrl+U to delete everything to the left of the cursor
  • ctrl+K to delete everything to the right of the cursor
  • ctrl+A to jump to the left end
  • ctrl+E to jump to the right end

Solution 2:

Although this doesn't answer your question directly, a better terminal program is probably iTerm2. This does allow for this kind of selection, even nicer, double clicking also automatically copies it to the clipboard as well!
