Select text in a Quick Look window?

Question

Is there any possibility (default write, or something else) to copy text directly from a quick look window? It annoys me that i cannot select and copy text snippets directly from Quick Look.

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Sure that is possible with Terminal, just fire up:

defaults write com.apple.finder QLEnableTextSelection -bool TRUE

You have to restart finder before the option will be available.
