From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hi everyone! I'm the developer of a clipboard manager that I know many of us Linux users here might know, called just The Clipboard Project.

I've spent the past couple months working on a bunch of speed optimizations, little fixes, and a really cool new feature for Linux only: asynchronous X11/Wayland clipboard synchronization. What that means is that you can copy stuff in the background and your CB clipboard will pick it all up automatically.

If that sounds awesome, then you can get the brand-spanking-new 0.8.2 version at https://github.com/Slackadays/Clipboard or this post's link (thanks, Lemmy!)

simply copy-paste text from one local console to another

Well, if you just have two windows going to two different terminals, whatever text you select in one you can just copy to the other usually with Ctrl+SHIFT+C and Ctrl+SHIFT+V, and my clipboard manager lets you do the same even for large amounts of text you can't select. Therefore, all you'd need a specific setup for is if you want to do this action automatically with a single button press, like an Excel macro. I hope this helps! :)
