Copy the exception from within the application? Yeah, I agree that makes sense.

What do you want to allow them to paste?

Guess I wrote that without thinking too much about what I was saying. The problem is that if I find an answer that I like, I can't seem to copy the text in the terminal to paste into my file. So there's no need to paste INTO our app, but it would be nice if we could copy text FROM our app.

I am not sure if this is a limitation from textual or not

That's a good point. I think it would be great to copy. Also if you are using the integrated terminal you can see the terminal output while writing code too...

I don't think textual allows for copying from the scroll view, but we could add a hotkey for copying the current questions and answes.

Maybe a hotkey to dump a specific question or answer to the terminal and quit?
