Feature-request: copy-as-rtf, copy-selection-as-rtf
Support copy sketch (or selection) to allow pasting into other documents with syntax highlighting, etc.
This is a really common task for teachers: code an example, paste it into a powerpoint or keynote doc...
great idea! i don't know how easy or hard this is to do, or if codemirror already supports this.
I wanted to second this request (even though it was mine to begin with)... ;)
this is absolutely crucial for those of us making presentation slides (keynote, powerpoint, etc) from sketches...

i hear that! a workaround for now could be taking a screenshot of the code in a code editor, and then adding alt text to the image that is the code.
There's hasn't been any movement on this and and I hear that it's important to you. I just added the help wanted label so that someone else might pick it up!
Someone was able to get RTF copy in CodeMirror working, see https://discuss.codemirror.net/t/rich-text-copy/695/4
Also, it's not ideal, but one workaround would be to download your sketch and then open it in a different text editor. I just tried this with VSCode and then copying the code to Keynote and it kept the formatting.
I understood the issue, as I am new in open source contribution I would like to take this issue. Can it be assigned to me? @catarak
where can I ask doubts regarding codebase or if I stuck somewhere? It will be helpful for me to work on this feature. And medium or platform to discuss?
