copy-on-mouse-select — Pascal Rigaux

On Linux (both Xorg and Wayland), selecting text with mouse or keyboard sends the selected text to PRIMARY selection.

This addon sends mouse selected text to regular clipboard:

> on mouseup, send document.getSelection() to navigator.clipboard.

It is only a 4 lines content_script!


* after install of module, you must reload any existing pages before selecting. Otherwise it will NOT work.
* do not test it on https://addons.mozilla.org/, it will not work
