mclip - Command line utility to access the X selection or clipboard * What is mclip? mclip is a command line tool to communicate with the X selection mechanism. It can either print out the contents of the selection, or put an arbitrary string to the selection so that it can be pasted into other X applications. * Installation You can install mclip via the usual process of installing an autoconf package: $ configure $ make # make install To build mclip, you need Xlib, a C++ compiler, and a UNIX-like system. If the build fails or compiles incorrectly on your platform, please let me know. * Usage Run without arguments, mclip will print out the contents of the selection to standard output. You can give it filenames as arguments, and then it will put their contents to the selection. You can also specify "-", denoting standard input. See the man page for further information. * Contact If you have problem regarding mclip, please mail me at m@kotha.net. Patches and suggestions are also welcomed. * License Copyright(c) 2008 m@kotha.net You may copy, modify, distribute or otherwise use this software without any limitations.
