# Copy

When running in a desktop environment (X11 or Wayland), the TUI of tracexec supports copying details to the system clipboard.

<!-- asciinema record --window-size 100x26 --overwrite --command "target/debug/tracexec tui -- env -C / ls" ~/repos/tracexec/book/casts/tui-copy.cast -->

{{ #asciinema ../../casts/tui-copy.cast opts=casts/autoplay-loop.json }}

To use it, first select an event in the event list.
Then press <kbd>C</kbd> to open the copy popup.

After that, select an entry in the list and press <kbd>Enter</kbd>
to copy it to the clipboard. Alternatively, press the corresponding character of the entry to directly copy it.
