What is this new feature

Simply saying, it just the same as the default copy & paste settings of Windows Terminal.
For detail, I write this pseudo code to explain its logic:

WHEN right mouse button clicked:
    IF user selects the text:
        copy those text
    ELSE
        paste to the terminal

Why I need this new feature

On Windows 10/11, there is a tool called Clipboard History, it will save your recent copies and let you reuse them later. When I use this tool with Tabby together, an annoying problem is that those text I accidently selected in Tabby will overwrite histories in Clipboard History.

I know it is possible to close the "Copy on select" option, but that means I need to use keyboard or context menu to copy text, those methods are not as convivence as simply select and right click. Besides, it reduce the learning cost for users who migrate from Windows Terminal like me.

How do you guys think about this feature?

Can we keep an option for people who prefer old method. That is to Select & Paste directly on right click while the selection is on rather than having to do extra right click before it could be pasted.

Please disregard. Just realized we already have an option in Right click settings :).
