tmux command: [`paste-buffer`](/en/tmux/latest/manual/paste-buffer/)

```
libtmux.Pane.paste_buffer(
    self,
    buffer_name: str | None = None,
    delete_after: bool | None = None,
    linefeed_separator: bool | None = None,
    bracket: bool | None = None,
    separator: str | None = None,
    no_vis: bool | None = None,
) -> None
```

Paste a buffer into the pane via [`$ tmux paste-buffer`](/en/tmux/latest/manual/paste-buffer/).

## Examples

```python
>>> server.set_buffer('pasted_text')
>>> pane.paste_buffer()
```

## Parameters

- `buffer_name` (`str | None`): Name of the buffer to paste (``-b`` flag).
- `delete_after` (`bool | None`): Delete the buffer after pasting (``-d`` flag).
- `linefeed_separator` (`bool | None`): Use newline as the line separator instead of carriage return
(``-r`` flag).
- `bracket` (`bool | None`): Use bracketed paste mode (``-p`` flag).
- `separator` (`str | None`): Separator between lines (``-s`` flag).
- `no_vis` (`bool | None`): Paste the buffer's raw bytes without passing them through
``vis(3)`` escaping (``-S`` flag). tmux 3.7 escapes pasted
content by default; set this to restore the raw behaviour.
Requires tmux 3.7+. If used with tmux < 3.7, a warning is issued
and the flag is ignored.
