Clipboard Manager for Linux 📝🖥️

A simple and efficient clipboard manager for Linux users, inspired by Windows clipboard history. With just CTRL + ALT + V, access your clipboard's last 10 copied texts, and easily paste the one you need!


Features ✨

  • 🖱️ Quick Access: Show clipboard history with CTRL + ALT + V.
  • 🔄 Customizable: Modify hotkey, window size, and other settings as per your needs.
  • 🖥️ Open-Source: Feel free to tweak the code as it's open for all.
  • 💻 Lightweight: A simple Python-based solution for your clipboard needs.

Installation 🚀

Follow these steps to install the clipboard manager:

git clone https://github.com/Rickidevs/Clipboard.git
cd Clipboard
chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh

Usage 🎮

Simply press CTRL + ALT + V to open the clipboard history window. Select the text you want to paste, and you're good to go!

Customization Options 🎛️

If you want to customize some settings, make changes directly in the Clipboard.py file before running the setup.sh script:

🔑 Shortcut Key: Modify the hotkey at line 72. The default is CTRL + ALT + V, but you can change it to any other combination. The WIN key can sometimes cause issues on Linux, so adjust as needed.

🪟 Window Size: You can change the window dimensions at line 35. The current default size is 400x360

🎨 Window Color: You can change the window's background color at line 36.


Uninstallation 🗑️

If you decide to remove the clipboard manager, you can do so with the following commands:

sudo systemctl stop clipboard_monitor.service
sudo systemctl disable clipboard_monitor.service
sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/clipboard_monitor.service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload

To verify that the service has been successfully removed, run:

systemctl list-units --type=service | grep clipboard_monitor
