How to Select-All in Terminator

I don't have the menu bar, nor the option to show it. So I have this workaround:

1. Shift + Home
2. Select the first line
3. Shift + End
4. Shift + click on the last character

The quickest way to select all / select specific text in Gnome Terminator:

1. Click at the start of the text you want to select
2. Scroll the window to the end of the text you want select
3. Shift + click the end of your selection
4. All text between your first click and your last Shift + click is now selected
5. Then you can Ctrl + Shift + C your selection out of there

It's not a keyboard shortcut, but it's a lot faster than click-and-drag to select text, that's for sure.

Your select all is disabled by default.

1. Go to Menu->Preferences->Shortcuts
2. From Edit selection choose "Select All"
3. Then to assign press Ctrl+Shift+A

No Shortcut, use Mouse: click on Menu -> Select All

Only true for Program: Terminal

I had the same goal and modified Thierry Ds copyall-Terminator-Plugin to be just a select-all.

Install and activation:

• copy selectall.py into /usr/share/terminator/terminatorlib/plugins/
• restart terminator to discover the new plugin
• in terminator:
  • right-click->Preferences
  • switch to Plugins tab
  • select SelectAll
  • click Close

Now you can Select-All by: right-click->Select all

Perhaps I should add a shortcut as well.
