I have ask for this before but got no answers so I try again :-)
If you go to a browser on a computer (Vivaldi in my case but I don't think it matter) and click on the url box, you'll notice the url is automatically selected. You can press ctrl-c and this url will be copied to the clipboard.
However, if I go to a terminal and type 'xclip -out -selection primary' I will either get nothing or whatever was selected before. In any cases, not my url.
If I deselect the url and re-select it again, then it works as expected.
What is special about this "one-click automatic selection" that make it different from another normal selection?
