Feature request: Select the copied line when copying with no text selected #190

Open NoahAndrews opened 7 months ago

Have you searched existing Github issues to see if someone has already requested this feature? Yes

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

177 added functionality to copy the current line when no text is selected, but it's not apparent that anything happened.

Describe the solution you'd like Heynote should select the current line

Describe alternatives you've considered Some kind of pop-up message could be used, I suppose

Additional context The behavior I've suggested here is the same behavior used in JetBrains IDEs.

Hmm, when issuing a copy command with a selection, you don't get any kind of feedback either, right? You'd lose the cursor position within the line if the whole line gets selected, and maybe that's annoying?

That's true, but it's obvious what got copied, unlike if you had nothing selected.
