Makes sense tho... When you C-V - you see the feedback, i.E. the pasted data appears in front of you. When you C-C - there is no feedback, so you can never be sure you have copied anything.
Repeating the C-C 7 times in a row reduces the probability of a miss :) -
@netikras yeah, but an uninitiated person would find it quite amusing to some some dude frantically mash the C button as fast as he possibly can lmao

CTRL + C
Then, Either:
CTRL + V
Or
WIN KEY + V (Select from previously copied stuff. Windows only, I think)
...anyone? Just me? -
@no-oxygen we don’t use Windows here.
Just kidding, use whatever the hell you want. I don’t use Windows for development though :D -
@no-oxygen oh god, JIT languages are my top enemy. Though, if you like what you do, keep going :D

Get yourself a clipboard manager and then set the last 3 - 10 clips to key commands.
I'm currently using the clipboard manager that comes with Better Touch Tool... but whatever can bind key commands to a clipboard history would work.
Changed my fucking life. -
@HiFiWiFiSciFi I have tried one of those, I can confidently say that I didn’t like them really. There is something very reassuring in spamming C-C all the time, idk. But everyone and their preferences :D

I just bought the laptop which has a bad chance of keyboard working on the bottom, so instead of Ctrl C C, I do Ctrl C C X V now.
