I’ve installed xsel on my Manjaro Linux system after reading a tweet mentioning that the Helix editor uses xsel as the default provider for interacting with the system clipboard on X11 systems. However, I would like to change the helix configuration so that copying to the system clipboard is the default behavior. Can anyone provide guidance on how to make this change? I would appreciate any help or suggestions. Thank you!

Although I use helix too I’m not exactly sure how to do this. I know vim and nvim have variables you can set in the configuration file to change the register used so check the helix documentation for something like that
Wouldnt somethung like this work?
y=“:clipboard-yank” or “:primary-clipboard-yank”
