# Qute Code Hint
A small qutebrowser userscript for copying code snippets on web pages to the clipboard.
## Example
Hinting:
Copying to clipboard:
## Installation
1. Download the script:
```bash
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LaurenceWarne/qute-code-hint/master/code_select.py -O ~/.local/share/qutebrowser/userscripts/code_select.py
```
2. In your qutebrowser config file create a new custom group for code:
```python
c.hints.selectors["code"] = [
# Selects all code tags whose direct parent is not a pre tag
":not(pre) > code",
"pre"
]
```
3. Bind the userscript using a keybinding of your choice:
```python
...
'< ctrl- # > ': 'hint code userscript code_select.py',
...
```
4. Optionally install the python [pyperclip ](https://github.com/asweigart/pyperclip ) module for better multiline copying:
```bash
pip3 install pyperclip --user
# Alternatively for PEP 668 compliance, you can install from your package manager, e.g.
sudo apt install python3-pyperclip
```
If you're having issues with `pyperclip` , you can use [pyclip ](https://github.com/spyoungtech/pyclip ) instead:
```bash
pip3 install pyclip
```
### Multiline Copying
Without pyperclip/pyclip the default behaviour for code snippets spanning multiple lines is to join them all on one line, with semicolons separating the previously seperate lines.
