Description nilskemail+kde 2024-10-27 14:26:08 UTC 
I would like to copy the terminal content including ANSI escape sequences for styling (color, bold, underline, ...).
This is pretty much bug 335656 which got closed as KDE 4 reached EOL.

Currently Konsole only supports copying the plain text. It also supports saving the whole scrollback as HTML but that is often not what one wants. For one, it exports the whole scrollback from which one then has to extract the desired section. Additionally, there are cases where HTML cannot be used but ANSI can.
