The "Select Pasted Text" extension automatically selects text that you paste into a file. This functionality helps you quickly modify or move the pasted content without manually selecting it.
Features
Automatically selects pasted text in any file.
Works only when the cursor is within a file, ensuring it does not interfere with other parts of VS Code (like the terminal or debug console).
