Ability to copy Hanzi definition to clipboard

[WagnerMaxsen]

Hi,
I've just come across your excellent Chinese Console extension.
I have two feature requests that I think would be useful.

1. Be able to press a key (combination) and have the Hanzi and its definition copied to the clipboard. I usually select a Hanzi (whatever is selected, sometimes it's a idiomatic expression) and want to have it in my Google Sheets spreadsheet for further adding sample sentences, etc, and this spreadsheet becomes the source for a later import into Anki. So, being able to have the Hanzi plus its definition copied onto the clipboard would be very useful.
2. A small (in importance) feature would be to add Signal as a possible option for Sharing to.

Congratulations on such a nice extension. Out of curiosity, in what programming language is your extension coded in?
Thank you.

@WagnerMaxsen sorry for the late response.

1. This is very interesting to me, and I think I could make a feature that would facilitate this. I'm wondering if simple copying to the clipboard would be good enough. It's almost as if tab-separated data would be more effective, and have that be selectable.
   • I'm considering developing a website that will back this extension, and the ability to maintain words and lists, and have export capabilities etc. Would this be useful for you?
2. As for sharing to Signal, I am using the react-share library, and they do not seem to have a Signal option. If you would like to make your suggestion with them, and they were to add it, I'd happily add it to the extension.
