Describe the bug
Terminal.app conflicts with alt-screen option in copilot CLI, as a result a mouse selection can't be copied (requires Fn key selection).
--no-alt-screen was a nice workaround, not everyone needs alt-screen, but now this option is also gone in 1.0.12.
Affected version
GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.12.
Steps to reproduce the behavior
- Run copilot in Terminal.app - it may be related to a copilot running in a terminal session on a macos VM as well.
- Select a text with a mouse, copy it.
- Paste it - the selected text isn't copied.
- Select with Fn key pressed, copy.
- Paste - selected text copied successfully.
Expected behavior
Mouse selection always should be copied regardless of the Fn key.
Additional context
MacOS 26.4 arm64
