How do I copy to the clipboard one large text file


Hello, I have a text file that is one line and is 80,000 characters. I need to copy it to the clipboard.

Kate just freezes on me when I try to do anything in the file and everything else I try seems to just stall.

Any ideas? Any good quick editors I can use to copy it to my clipboard in kde?
