Copy Selected Links: Firefox Add-on for Copying URLs
'Copy Selected Links' is a Firefox add-on devised to simplify the process of extracting URLs from selected text. By simply right-clicking on the selected portion containing links, users can instantly copy the URLs. Also, it facilitates opening these links in new tabs. The feature even works if you directly right-click on a link. Despite being no longer maintained, this add-on can still be downloaded and utilized. Its source code is also available for those who wish to fork it.
