I have set Klipper to save 500 entries. It is triggered with a Ctrl+` on my system. And you could search through the Klipper history just by typing. If you enable "synchronize primary selection with clipboard" you will never have to do Ctrl-C to copy just select and it will be copied. And then you can trigger Klipper anywhere your mouse is by using shortcut Ctrl+`, search and paste. -- Sudhir Khanger, http://sudhirkhanger.com http://github.com/donniezazen -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
