Requested Assignment

If possible, I would like to implement this. I'm just suggesting this idea. I don't want to implement it.

Please add a persistent history feature, even if it's its just the most recent 'result' - or perhaps, an option to copy it to the clipboard on exit.

I'm working on this since I don't think anyone else will. May take me 2-3 weeks as I am quite busy and also haven't coded in C++ in years. I'm going with the route of serializing and deserializing to json file to save history upon exit and to restore on reopen.

This issue is very confusing. Most fields on the template got skipped, the description is ambiguous ("I would like to implement"/"I don't want to implement"), and then there's a comment suggesting another feature. Last but not least... doesn't it already have a history sidebar??

@nonentity1001, I would propose you rewrite the main issue and its title with the full description of what you are suggestting and what you would like to see implemented.
