No, I don't see any such option. And a script? No clue!

I really, really dislike Libby overall, and hate that it has been forced on me for many things, but this is a nice feature addition.
I don't want to go near Libby; I'm afraid it's going to mess up everything else that works for me now.

Actually, slightly better is to paste the copied table into a program which can show you the structure (Word or Notepadd++), show hidden characters and find out what character is separating cells in a row. (If you are lucky, it won't just be a space). The paste into Excel and select that character as the cell separator.
Copying and pasting page by page was what I started to do, but deleting all the extraneous stuff is time-consuming. But I guess that's what I'll be stuck doing!
