Primary selection protocol #121

Closed flaviozavan closed 1 year ago

flaviozavan commented 1 year ago

Implements the primary selection protocol

Also functions as a workaround for this annoying firefox bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1731511

This can be tested by trying to copy across different views using the middle mouse button. Firefox issue can be tested by trying to copy straight from the address bar into another app using any method, without the workaround, it is only able to paste onto Firefox itself.

Very interesting, I've hit the firefox issue myself but never got around to looking into it - I assumed it was something vivarium was doing wrong, not that an actual firefox bug was behind it. Very happy to merge, thanks!
