Copy-pastable line wrap about termbox-go

[nsf]

It's not possible in termbox. Just because of abstractions used. Termbox doesn't preserve info about lines of text as it's just an array of 2d cells. And I believe similar libs have a similar problem, but maybe I'm wrong about that.

Solution: avoid using terminals. Terminals suck.

Sorry for the late answer, but let me get this right:
You want to be able to select a multi-line text but not the entire lines and you don't want the line breaks to be in the selection?
So this is your problem:

If you're still looking for a solution, here's something I hacked together:

Here is the source file in case you're interested: clipboard.go.txt

This basically consists of three things:

• Any mouse press is recorded and added to a selection rectangle.
• The selection rectangle is highlighted in the inverted style.
• When the user presses the enter key, that region is copied to the clipboard.

With this technique, you still cannot intercept C-Ins (although you can intercept C-S-c. Also, keep in mind that what I'm doing here is not a real terminal selection but just a highlighted area.

Let me know if this helped you!
