Wow. While everybody else is yakking, you write a script. :) This is
very cool and there's not even a noticable lag.
It would need a custom "copy" though to remove the spacers. Maybe:
on commandKeyDown which -- copykey
if which <> "c" then pass commandKeyDown
put the selectedText into tData
replace numToChar(0) with empty in tData
set the clipboardData["text"] to tData
end commandKeyDown -- copykey
Ideally the handler should use "copyKey" but I couldn't get it to trigger.

This uses a naive algorithm and has limitations, but it's a fun experiment.
Create a scrolling text field and a 1x1 empty image object.
Paste this into the field script and type away.
