When a word or wordS are highlighted in the Word panel table, and focus is in the table, keying ctl-c should copy the text of the word (or if multiple words, the text of all words with single spaces between) to the system clipboard.

It is not hard to trap keystrokes, we already do it in other panels, but it is not obvious how to read out the selected words and how to post to the system clipboard. There are some posts in stackoverflow about how to do it
