I spend my life having to select lines to copy them. A quick-copy button at the end of each line would be great and make things so much more convenient.

how would you envision such a feature could be designed and invoked? Do you have any examples of other apps that can do this? Can’t you just use a keyboard shortcut Ctrl+A to select all text and then Ctrl-C to copy?

OnePassword, for example, does this for lists. It’s very handy when you have forms to fill out. It’s much faster than Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C, and Ctrl+V.
Triple click - ctrl+C is my Luddite approach.

Or ctrl-a then ctrl-c

In UX design, one click is better than 2.
Without a doubt!
Whatever the case, an only when you hover icon. The visual chaos of an icon at the end of every line might be a bit much. Or an option for those that have no need.
Side note, I have a couple AHKs that copy the node text for other reasons. Just realized I could take one of those and shrink it to create a simple node copy. Thanks for the idea. Luddite no more!

On a Mac, if you use the PopClip app, you can triple-click and then just click on “copy” from the pop-up menu
Also on Edge in Windows with no add-ons.
@jodmarch Are you saying that triple-clicking in Edge for Windows will copy the text, or just select all the text? The latter is what my experience has been in any web browser.
I was referring to the PopClip feature in macOS that responds to text selection (double-click or triple-click) by displaying a menu of different actions you can choose from to act on the selected text, such as Copy, Cut, etc.
Got it. No, just the select all. So nothing new or different.
