How to use as plain Rofi mode?

Hey 👋🏾

I highly appreciate your fancy clipcat-menu implementation. But to be honest, I would like to use just my "regular" Rofi and have it added as a mode there. So I can just tab to it. Ofc that does not allow for all the fancy features, but a simple selection of an entry should work. I just don't want to use another OS mapping to open a different Rofi.

I'm also pretty sure it used to work in the past. In my Rofi configuration I had this line: modi: "<...other-modi...>,clipboard:clipcatctl list --no-id. But unfortunately, using the list --no-id command now, prints a single line with all entries concatenated. No more (?) a line by line list. Which is a bit unexpected, because without the --no-id parameters, it is a line by line list. And to my knowledge it used to be that --no-id just scraped off the leading ID part of each line.

But maybe there is even a smarter way to do it? Thanks for your help!
