Hi,

I recently discovered a great shortcut: meta + V

Yes, a bit later (I'm using KDE for more than 10 years), but it's better later than never ... :P

Would be great and option to "auto-paste" the selected entry from history after invoque with meta + V, instead of meta + V -> select entry -> control + V

Is this already possible and I will discover it after 10 more years? or it's not possible then, it's a wish?

Thank's

I'm afraid this is not easily possible. Every app/toolkit implements is own paste functionality; there is no generic way for Plasma to paste the text into whatever app is currently focused. :(
