Background
I like to read books on my iBook on OS and copy excerpts into my Roam so I can process them and save them for later reference.
Everytime I copy and paste the selction, however, the excerpt is pasted alongside it and I have to clean it up every time which is irritating.
I want to prevent this from happening and only copy paste what I specifically copy pasted. There should be a way to turn this off but Apple
does not provide this option. So we will have to find our own alternative.
