okay so bestie, quick vibe check — you're in the RXVT-UNICODE manual pages, and this little cutie right here is literally one of the smallest ones you'll ever meet. no cap, it's giving "short but iconic." let's get into it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

selection-to-clipboard — the tiny extension that copies your selection to the clipboard every single time you make a selection 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. load it as a perl extension with `-pe` and you're done, periodt 💅

## 🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this very simple extension does exactly one thing and honestly? it ate. every time a selection is made, it copies that selection to the clipboard. like, immediately. no extra steps, no "did you mean to copy that," it just *does it* 🔥

in effect — and this is the important part, bestie, memorize this — it <purple>synchronises the clipboard with the selection</purple> for selections done by `rxvt-unicode`. so the two stay in sync, lowkey like they're holding hands the whole time 💜

> ngl, "very simple" is not a humblebrag here — that's genuinely the entire feature. but simple done flawlessly? that's main character energy 👑
