Make application paste when select an item

Open einsteinarbert opened this issue 6 years ago • 7 comments

Can we make auto paste when select an item on list clipboard? Because select and then Ctrl + V is very slow for dev who usually copy-paste code :D

I remember I have been used an old copy clipboard on ubuntu 12.04, press Ctrl + "]" => It shows a list of history copied => and when I selected one of them, the text will auto paste on my context ==> No need to press Ctr+V. screenshot from 2018-11-29 14-40-59 When I select one of list clipboard save by qlipper, I must to press Ctr + V for paste that selected item (waste two times for an action)

Any progress with it? I hardly trying find something like clipman - fast and simple and i tried like 5+ clipboards. All was bad for speed, complicatedness or just not working. This one seems very fast and simple, but it missed must have feature of "paste on select". Have anyone found solution or maybe found app that good do this properly?

I found these settings to work perfectly fine, just trigger menu (Hotkeys -> History key combination) and it will autopaste. Make sure to install xdotool before (sudo apt install xdotool)
