I use nano on my headless servers through Windows Terminal.

I just tried out the dte editor which in current beta now support the
ability to copy selected text right back to your host Windows clipboard. A
really useful feature that I after a few days just can't live without.
Perhaps you could consider adding this feature to nano :-)

I assume you can grab some code-lines from the dte repo (
https://gitlab.com/craigbarnes/dte
<https://gitlab.com/craigbarnes/dte/-/issues>)

If you want to try it out yourself in dte you need to enable the feature
this way:
echo "bind -n ^c 'copy -bi'" >> /root/.dte/rc

There is a binary on "https://craigbarnes.gitlab.io/dte/releases.html" at
the bottom of the page (dte-master...) if you don't wanna build.
