About Hover Text Copier
When copying text from any website, I've always found dragging to select text quite bothering, especially when the text is long.
To overcome this unnecessary extra workload, I built Hover Text Copier.
The idea of just hovering over any text and pressing C to copy was so simple and elegant that I had to make it.
There are different levels of selection available : 1) Block Mode - copy paragraphs, lists, and sections, 2) Sentence Mode - Copy sentences in a paragraph or sections, 3) Word Mode - copy specific words in paragraphs.
Beyond this a great set of features enhance the user experience: 1) Multi-Select : select different parts of the page and copy them together. 2) AI Prompts : send your selected text directly to your favorite AI chat, ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude. 3) Regex Filters : for our dear power users who want to extract more specific elements from webpage like only emails, URLs, UUIDs, etc. 4) Clipboard History : keep the last 20 copies handy. 5) Format Modes : Markdown, HTML & Plain Text, your choice of copying for your specific use.
It's completely client side and hence privacy first! Your text stays on your machine.
If you spend a lot of time reading documentation, researching, coding, studying or just copying stuff from the web all day, HTC will become your everyday tool, making the boring parts less boring.
Hover. Copy. Get on with it.
