It seems like that's duplicating what `make`, `ninja` and similar tools already 
do though, in addition to also confusing what the "Compiler" tab contains; not 
just compile/build output as described in the manual, but also some non-build 
status messages generated by Geany.

In any case, IMO the simplest solution, as previously mentioned, would be to 
add a new menu item to the context menu of the Compiler tab to allow copying 
only the _actual_ build output, and none of Geany's injected status messages. 
This way doesn't require adding any preferences or removing existing 
functionality or such.
