Are there any keyboard shortcuts which enable selecting a text for copying it to clipboard in Konsole? Sometimes (like when working in Midnight Commander) it could be easier to perform such task using a keyboard rather than reaching for a mouse.

Thanks.

Unfortunately Konsole doesn't support using keyboard shortcuts to perform text selection - you however you use XTE to automate mouse interactions, and which could perform the text selection for you.

You can also use something like Tmux which has a copy mode.
