Author Enable copy-to-clipboard for error message in ISQL error dialog
Breck Carter [TeamSybase]

Please make it possible to copy the entire error message to the
clipboard whenever ISQL displays an error message dialog.

This will make it easier to do two things:

(1) Report problems; no more capturing screenshots, no more re-typing
SQLCODE values.

(2) Create documentation, where writing a "How To Deal With This
Situation" section.

The key feature that is missing here (I believe) is the ability
to select the arbitrary sections of that pane; including (as
Breck would want) the entire message pane contents.

Currently you can only select and then copy just one line
at a time.

For example if you submit this SQL batch

begin
message( 'multi-part hello placed') to client;
message( 'in your') to client;
message( 'message') to client;
message( 'pane') to client;
end


You can only copy

'multi-part hello placed',
'in your',
'message',
or
'pane'

but no collection of lines or subset (as in just
the word 'hello') of those.
