Telegram: copy-message button

Adds a small "Copy" button to each message that copies its text to the clipboard with one click.

Code to copy

// Add a small "Copy" button to each message bubble
function addCopyButtons() {
  const msgs = document.querySelectorAll('.bubbles .bubble .message, .Message .text-content');
  msgs.forEach(function (m) {
    if (m.dataset.jzCopy) { return; }
    m.dataset.jzCopy = '1';
    const b = document.createElement('button');
    b.textContent = 'Copy';
    b.style.cssText = 'margin-left:6px;font-size:11px;padding:1px 6px;cursor:pointer;'
      + 'border:1px solid currentColor;border-radius:6px;background:transparent;color:inherit';
    b.addEventListener('click', function (e) {
      e.stopPropagation();
      navigator.clipboard.writeText(m.textContent || '');
    });
    m.appendChild(b);
  });
}
addCopyButtons();
const obs = new MutationObserver(addCopyButtons);
obs.observe(document.documentElement, { childList: true, subtree: true });
