Yeah I love this feature. I love it so much that I'll also tell everyone who cares to listen how you can use it. Edit your ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf file to include map ctrl+c copy_and_clear_or_interrupt and you are good to go. Only issue I have that it doesn't seem to work in the vscode terminal.

Oh what a great way to further entrench a bad habbit! Hang on I need to remedy some refactored code with rm -rf * which Kitty made safe if I’m in a directory with my project files 🙄
