1 # wayclip 2 3 wayclip is a pair of command-line utilities: `waycopy` and `waypaste`, 4 which allow access to the Wayland clipboard. Specifically, `wayclip` 5 is a `wlr-data-control` protocol client. 6 7 wayclip distinguishes itself from other Wayland clipboard utilities 8 in the following ways: 9 - small - the whole codebase is less than 300 lines! (excluding whitespace) 10 - Unixy - all it does is copy and paste; other functions are for other programs 11 - no dynamic memory allocation 12 13 ## Usage 14 15 To copy data, just pipe it into `waycopy`, and optionally specify a seat and mimetype: 16 17 ``` 18 $ echo "howdy" | waycopy -s seat0 -t text/plain 19 ``` 20 (note that `waycopy` will fork into the background) 21 22 To paste, optionally specify a seat and desired mimetype: 23 ``` 24 $ waypaste -s seat0 -t text/plain 25 howdy 26 $ 27 ```
