Auto-copy highlighted text to clipboard on mouse-up - #446
Merged
Conversation
OpenTUI emits CliRenderEvents.SELECTION once when a drag-select finishes (mouse-up). A new copyFinishedSelection handler writes the selected text through the system clipboard port, flashes a status line with a char count and preview, then clears the highlight so the selection does not linger. Empty selections and mid-drag updates are no-ops. The Alt+M flash copy is updated to name the new behavior, and docs/TUI.md documents the drag-select-copy path alongside the existing Alt+M and Alt+C chords.
Align Alt+M copy/help strings and docs with mouse-up clipboard copy, and pin the SELECTION event path through a live shell.
Keep the status flash single-line for short drag-selects, and make the help row describe mouse capture as a toggle with capture as the default.
