'Select All' feature in Error console
Last modified: 2008-01-15 13:04:32 UTC
During Script-FU script development I frequently analyse the output of my scripts that appears in the error console. For very long output I often select everything in the error console and paste into an external editor. Selecting hundreds of lines using the mouse is tedious. It would be helpful if an option existed that allows to just select everything in the console. Of course I could also use the "save-as" option of the console to directly save the output but selecting files to save to also becomes tedious with time. The error console already has a menu accessible via right mouse-button clicks; I suggest to add a select-all entry to that menu.
That would indeed be useful and trivial to add.
