Feature request: Command to copy a line of text in preview

[danrobi11]

I noticed that we could scroll up/down in a text preview. It would be neat to have a command to quickly copy a line.

For more (multi-line selection for example), some thought is needed but a verb for the current line seems easy.

If you try from the current master, be careful that it only works when broot is compiled with the "clipboard" feature.

works when broot is compiled with the "clipboard" feature.

Im trying to know the syntax for the clipboard feature argument from here But I get page not found.

[Canop]

I didn't know about the "features.md" file practice.

You can compile with cargo build --release --features clipboard.

Feel free to come and chat on Miaou for more info.

Or just wait a few days for the release of broot v1.1.11 which will have the change.

I've found the link at If you want a custom compilation, have a look at the optional features documentation from here

Ahaha... totally forgot about this one. Adding a issue.

Cool feature! I'm on v1.6.3-1 but it seems don't work (ie alt+c or :copy_line do nothing).

Or just wait a few days for the release of broot v1.1.11 which will have the change.

is it still only as custom compilation?

[Canop]

I'll have a look. Reopening so that I'm sure not to forget.
