Copy / Paste using PRIMARY

Open snaggen opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

I tested to select text with the mouse and then tried to paste it using the middle mouse button, but with no success. So, I assume that this might be something that just is not implemented yet.

I tested it under a Gnome desktop (latest Fedora) , if that is relevant.

Funny, I thought I would be the only one who would miss this.

I like PRIMARY in terminals because Shift+Insert is easier than Ctrl+Shift+v.

Anyway, I think support for this needs to be added to window_clipboard first, then iced.

I was planning to look into it at some point if no one beats me to it.

As @MoSal said we need changes to window_clipboard. I'm also working on changes for cosmic-files that would add custom mime types.

This should be implemented with the middle mouse button, in #72
