Highlighting doesn't seem to work on plaintext page

See this page as an example. Using Windows and Brave 1.19.86. Alt-X opens the tool, and Ctrl-X highlights the selection, but nothing is copied into the box. Highlighting works fine if I try another page.

@bbhart very interesting! I've never tried on plain text like that before. Not a huge use case out there but I definitely will try to fix it in the next month or two.

Ran into the same issue while trying to highlight one of Warren Buffett's oldest shareholder letter.

It was my first time trying the extension, and I spent a good 10 minutes figuring out why it wasn't working when I stumbled upon this issue. I know it's not a priority since almost everything is not in plain text anymore, but it would be nice to have it at least mentioned in the README.md 😉

Thanks for the extension btw!
