Nextspace command line tools
Add two command line utilities:
nxpasteboard - gives you ability to do copy & paste and invoke system services directly from command line
--copy copy text from standard input to the pasteboard
--paste paste text from the pasteboard to standard output
--service
for example:
echo "$PWD" | nxpasteboard --service "Terminal/Open shell here"
nxworkspace - invoke Workspace commands from command line
--open
I will add additional functionality (e.g. --hide
@onflapp nice idea, thank you. I have some thoughts regarding these tools.
nxpasteboard: I'd like to have something like this https://www.manpagez.com/man/1/pbcopy. I've noticed 2 key points: it's 2 commands with quite clear short names and ability to specify pasteboard content type.
It seems like nxworkspace duplicates functionality of GNUstep's gopen tool. If it's extention to gopen - it should go into appropriate place (GNUstep).
General notes:
- You've misspelled "GNUmakefile" (capital "M" instead of "m"). It's not bug, but please stick to accepted file naming.
- It's better to move "Tools" out of "Applications" directory one level up.
I agree nxpasteboard should aspire to have the same capabilities as pbcopy and more
gopen closely follows Mac/NextStep open command, the idea behind nxworkspace is to provide functionality specific to NEXTSPACE. My wish list:
- open browser and select file
- hide / show apps
- inspect file
- recycle file
- alert panel
- file open panel
