Select all seems a bit risky in a terminal because it could contain way more information than you'd expect.

e.g. I want to `cat` a file to make sure i've got the right one, but I accidentally cat a full 1gb sql backup rather than the tiny 50 line script I was expecting. Sometime later, I try to select all, copy, switch application, paste for some reason but now I'm stuck waiting for 1gb to copy over

Personally I'm a bit more cautious about copying from a terminal.

Either way if that's what you really want to do, you can check the repo to see how other people scripted it into wezterm:
