false early in your |config|. Example: >lua
	local termfeatures = vim.g.termfeatures or {}
	termfeatures.osc52 = false
	vim.g.termfeatures = termfeatures
<
To force Nvim to use the OSC 52 provider you can set |g:clipboard|: >lua

    vim.g.clipboard = 'osc52'

Which is equivalent to: >lua
    vim.g.clipboard = {
      name = 'OSC 52',
      copy = {
        ['+'] = require('vim.ui.clipboard.osc52').copy('+'),
        ['*'] = require('vim.ui.clipboard.osc52').copy('*'),
      },
      paste = {
        ['+'] = require('vim.ui.clipboard.osc52').paste('+'),
        ['*'] = require('vim.ui.clipboard.osc52').paste('*'),
      },
    }
<
Note: not all terminal emulators support reading from the system clipboard
(and even for those that do, users should be aware of the security
implications), so using OSC 52 for pasting may not be possible (and not
necessary, because you can |paste| instead using your system paste function).
Users may need to configure their terminal emulator to allow reading from the
clipboard.

Paste							*provider-paste* *paste*

"Paste" is a separate concept from |clipboard|: paste means "dump a bunch of
text to the editor", whereas clipboard provides features like |quote+| to get
and set the OS clipboard directly.  For example, middle-click or CTRL-SHIFT-v
(macOS: CMD-v) in your terminal is "paste", not "clipboard": the terminal
application (Nvim) just gets a stream of text, it does not interact with the
clipboard directly.

							*bracketed-paste-mode*
Pasting in the |TUI| depends on the "bracketed paste" terminal capability,
which allows terminal applications to distinguish between user input and
pasted text.  https://cirw.in/blog/bracketed-paste
This works automatically if your terminal supports it.

							*ui-paste*
GUIs can paste by calling |nvim_paste()|.

PASTE BEHAVIOR ~

Paste inserts text after the cursor.  Lines break at <NL>, <CR>, and <CR><NL>.
When pasting a huge amount of text, screen-updates are throttled and the
message area shows a "..." pulse.

In cmdline-mode only the first line is pasted, to avoid accidentally executing
many commands.  Use the |cmdline-window| if you really want to paste multiple
lines to the cmdline.

You can implement a custom paste handler by redefining |vim.paste()|.
Example: >lua

  vim.paste = (function(lines, phase)
    vim.api.nvim_put(lines, 'c', true, true)
  end)

==============================================================================
X11 selection mechanism			      *clipboard-x11* *x11-selection*

X11 clipboard providers store text in "selections". Selections are owned by an
application, so when the application gets closed, the selection text is lost.
The contents of selections are held by the originating application (e.g., upon
a copy), and only passed to another application when that other application
requests them (e.g., upon a paste).

				*primary-selection* *quotestar* *quoteplus* *quote+*

There are three documented X11 selections: PRIMARY, SECONDARY, and CLIPBOARD.
CLIPBOARD is typically used in X11 applications for copy/paste operations
(CTRL-c/CTRL-v), while PRIMARY is used for the last selected text, which is
generally inserted with the middle mouse button.

Nvim's X11 clipboard providers only use the PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD selections,
for the "*" and "+" registers, respectively.
