Description

I've looked through the menus very hard and didn't find such an option.
I hope I didn't overlook anything. If this feature already exists, I apologize in advance.

The feature description:

there should be a button to copy the shell command, that sets env vars http_proxy and https_proxy, to the clipboard.
the shell command is used in a shell/terminal so that Proxyman would capture the network traffic in the shell/terminal.
for example, the shell command copied to the clipboard would look like this: export https_proxy=http://192.168.1.222:9091 http_proxy=http://192.168.1.222:9091

This feature request was inspired by ClashX.
ClashX has a Copy shell command under its menu item, which I found very useful.

Why this feature/change is important?

I'm not aware of any other better way to config the terminal for its traffic to be captured by Proxyman.

For developers that use terminal to develop network-related programs, I assume the shell command that sets http_proxy and https_proxy is used a lot of times every day.

The command can be added to the shell's profile file (e.g. .bashrc, .zshrc) and take effect permanently, but for users that don't always keep Proxyman opened, it doesn't make sense.
Most users would probably only set http_proxy and https_proxy when needed, and copying the whole command directly from Proxyman instead of typing it out would be super convenient.

That was fast!

I installed it and it works perfectly. Even where the button goes is same as what I imagined.

I will keep using this beta build for a while longer and let you know if there is anything wrong (I doubt there will be).

Thanks again!

PS: Please feel free to close this issue whenever works for your workflow.
