Documentation you'll actually want to read _{(all in this readme)}

...I've just discovered CB & it's suiting my needs very well!

I started using this because I just wanted an easy "cb copy && cb paste" VS trying to remember the correct input AND output flags when Im using xclip with different file types. I write a lot of shell scripts that copy certain stuff like images and text and this makes it a lot easier.

As a sysadmin and hourly terminal user, I found it so useful. Making stuffs some easier.

GitHub Downloads

First, get the latest revision of the Clipboard Project from GitHub Actions or the latest release from GitHub Releases.

Then, unpack what you just downloaded to a nice place anywhere on your system.

If you downloaded the Flatpak, now do flatpak install what-you-downloaded.flatpak. Or if you downloaded the Snap, now do sudo snap install --dangerous what_you_downloaded.snap.

Finally, add CB to your PATH (so that you can run it anywhere) by doing one of the following:

# For all platforms except Windows, Flatpak, and Snap
$ export PATH=$PATH:/where/you/unpacked/cb
# Add this to your terminal startup file like .bashrc or the equivalent so that it works every time.
# To get the current path (in case you don't know it), do the "pwd" command.

# For Flatpak
$ alias cb='flatpak run app.getclipboard.Clipboard'
# Add this to your terminal startup file like .bashrc or the equivalent so that it works every time.

# For Snap
$ alias cb='snap run clipboard'
# Add this to your terminal startup file like .bashrc or the equivalent so that it works every time.

# For Windows PowerShell
> $Env:PATH += ";C:whereyouunpackedcb"
# Add this to your PowerShell profile (which is located in $profile) so that this works every time.
# To get the current path (in case you don't know it), do the "Get-Location" command.
