Transcript

0:00Grab a pane's output to your clipboard -- raw for you, redacted for sharing.

0:03Launch rysh and generate some output worth capturing.

0:07Run a command -- its output fills the pane's buffer.

0:13Double-Escape over to rysh mode for the snapshot commands.

0:32Prefer to see it inline? ##private pane print shows raw output; ##public pane print shows the redacted version right in the pane.

0:39Snapshots make it easy to copy, paste, and share -- safely.

Key takeaway
Snapshots copy or print pane output either raw for yourself or redacted for safe sharing.
