Hello,

it would be nice to be able to copy a text only by selecting it... if this is a feature, I'm sorry but haven't found the option to enable it

The standard linux behavior for copying on select is to put the selected text in the middle click button's clipboard. If you select some text and middle click on something in guake, you should see that this works as intended. Unless you wanted guake to put selected text in the CTRL+V clipboard? This would be a bit outside standard behavior for linux.

Hi, thanks for your response... It might not be the standard but is what I'm used to on my previous terminal... I found yours and switched, it's really is a great improvement to productivity... now, it just a suggestion, you might add it or not... if it's easy to implement, why not?
Regards,

Well, think this should be doable. Can take a shot at it, would probably be optional after I do it though because I want select to not yoink my clipboard

While making the pull request I found out that #43 exists, so closing this because duplicate but the feature is in the pull request pipeline now.
