Linkify selected text when pasting a URL #1002

Open gnprice opened 1 month ago

gnprice commented 1 month ago

In Zulip web, if you have some text selected in the compose box and you paste a URL, the selected text becomes the text of a link (with that URL) instead of getting replaced.

That's a useful feature, and we should do the same in mobile.
