Ok, I hate Klipper.
Here’s the thing: I really want an X11 clipboard manager that would be exactly the same as Emacs’ kill-ring.
For those who don’t use Emacs, the kill-ring is basically a clipboard that holds streches of killed text (think: “cells” of copied/cut text).
Now, once you yank (“paste”), you can either provide an argument to C-y (so C-u 2 C-y yanks what you killed 2 kills ago), OR, the method I like, is C-y (yank) and then just M-y a few times to find exactly what you want.
If I make no sense: Kill Ring & Earlier Kills.
So that’s how I want my clipboard manager to behave.
I’d C-v and if I don’t like the text the clipboard manager just barfed, I’ll hit M-v (actually using C-y and M-y, like in Emacs, would be cooler) again and again until I find what I want.
or C-u 10 C-v (again, C-y would be cooler) to go back 10 “copies” ago, and paste just that.
Any ideas? (esp. by the sawmill users?)
Hi!My name is Alex!!!!
possible alternative to klipper: glipper ; but not too good, IMO.
Do You know any other clipboard history/manager apps?
Clipboard manager is such an incredible user speed boost.
For me it is important to be able to delete _selected_ clippings (e.g. passwords). Apparently i can’t do that in klipper and glipper. For windows i use “Clipper Cache” (very simple but usable enough except for deletion).
