Remove leading indentation/whitespace when copying CLI output #127
Description
Activity
@Teresa-CoCo You may use
/rawslash command and then select "Raw scrollback mode". It is introduced specifically to address this kind of need.
Thanks for the heads-up about the /raw command! It is indeed very helpful.
However, I think there is still room to improve the user experience for those who expect a cleaner copy-paste interaction by default:
1.Remove leading whitespace: Could we implement a way to automatically strip the leading indentation from the output blocks?
2. Streamlined 'Copy to Clipboard' interaction: Since the /raw output is often the desired content, would it be possible to implement a 'select-to-copy' trigger?
Description:
When copying code or output blocks from the deepcode-cli interface, there is often extra indentation (leading whitespace) on the left side.
This is inconvenient because it requires users to manually clean up the whitespace after pasting the content into their IDE or terminal, which can lead to indentation errors or unnecessary formatting adjustments. I'm planning to work on a fix for this.
Expected Behavior:
It would be much better if the copied content did not include the extra leading spaces, allowing for a "clean" paste.
Environment:
• OS: Manjaro Linux
• Terminal: VS Code Terminal
