`Space` starts selection, `Enter` copies selection and exits copy mode. List all items in copy buffer using `prefix C-p`, and paste most recent item from buffer using `prexix p`.
You can also use `y` which is equivalent to `Enter`, and `Y` will copy text, exit copy mode and immediately paste buffer to you command line.
`y` just copies selected text and is equivalent to `Enter`, `Y` copies whole line, and `D` copies by the end of line.
You can also select text using mouse. Default behavior is to copy text and immediately cancel copy mode on `MouseDragEnd` event. This is annoying, because sometimes I select text just to highlight it, but tmux drops me out of copy mode and reset scroll by the end. I've changed this behavior, so `MouseDragEnd` does not execute `copy-selection-and-cancel` action. You can then copy text just by left mouse click, and continue working in copy-mode.
