No keymap by default.

Modify flash duration

From v0.3.0, flashDurationMilliSeconds config was removed to use better flashing animation by CSS keyframe. Default duration is one second, if you want this shorter, modify your style.less.

atom-text-editor.editor .clip-history-pasted .region {
  // default is 1s, you can tweak in the range from 0 to 1s(maximum).
  animation-duration: 0.5s;
}
