copypasta

A command-line only Unix copy buffer manager in Python, most similar to copyq, xsel, and xclip, but supporting MIME-type detection to play well with desktop applications such as LibreOffice and web browsers.

Author

Purpose

copyq provides excellent copy and paste features, including clipboard management. However, all I really want is something lightweight to handle shuttling data from the filesystem to and from the UNIX clipboard, and this is where copypasta comes in.

Features and goals

  • UNIX philosophy
  • MIME-type detection
  • Standard input handling
  • Portability and convenience (Python for now!)
