Oddbean new post about login | logout ohh so you want to select the text on Amethyst and share with other apps?
I want to ba able to paste from my clipboard whatever other things I copied. The "paste" only allows to paste the latest copy, the "clipboard" lets you paste even the previous ones. Like, in windows, there is ctrl+V then there is ctrl+windows+V
Ah. I have that shit disabled. I see that as a security risk having a searchable clipboard history.
I think this requires a clipboard app, doesn't it? Something has to keep all the history saved somewhere.
when i was working on improving a widget library some years back one of the things i did was simply make it so you could at minimum click on text and it went into the clipboard... and i made buttons to copy and paste from the clipboard in the text input widgets as well the text-oriented design of web browsers makes all text selectable, pretty much, and people get used to that
Pay attention to CLIPBOARD plz
yeah, i also made it handle the X secondary buffer correctly too almost nobody seems to know that it exists X-Window-System by default you select, it goes into a buffer, i think technically it's the primary use menu or Ctrl-C and it copies to the secondary buffer press the middle mouse button and it pastes the PRIMARY buffer at the mouse location has been a fixture of X since the late 80s but windows retarded menus and mac retarded menus and the QWERTY layout make it easy to do one handed on the left side but i've been a dvorak since 2004 and those zxcv keys are all over the place mostly on the right side of the keyboard
