What is it?
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In short, it is clipboard history dockable application for Window Maker
|
||
|
|
(and maybe AfterStep with some little modifications - not tested).
|
||
|
|
wmcliphist keeps history of clipboard operations and allows you to put
|
||
|
|
previously copied items back to clipboard for pasting to other
|
||
|
|
applications. I wrote wmcliphist because there was no such application
|
||
|
|
suitable for usage in Window Maker and I was confused to run number of
|
||
|
|
KDE daemons for Klipper (which was the inspiration).

Instalation
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
wmcliphist requires gtk+ and glib (fully tested only with 1.2.8 and
|
||
|
|
1.2.10, but probably will work with any 1.2.x version) and foodock
|
||
|
|
library for writing dockable applications based on gtk+ (included).
|
||
|
|
Hopefuly you'll only need to run
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
make all install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
to compile and install wmcliphist. Note that you have to be root to
|
||
|
|
install program to /usr/local/bin (default). If it fails, check, that
|
||
|
|
you have installed gtk+, gtk+-devel, glib and glib-devel packages, make
|
||
|
|
and compiler (gcc). If it still fails, try to upgrade to up to date
|
||
|
|
versions of libraries listed above (see www.gtk.org).
|
||
|
|
wmcliphist was tested only on Linux (Red Hat Linux 7.2, kernel 2.4.9,
|
||
|
|
gcc 2.96), but it should compile and run on other un*x systems too.
|
||
|
|
After installing binary you can create your configuration file in
|
||
|
|
~/.wmcliphistrc (sample config file wmcliphistrc is included in
|
||
|
|
distribution archive).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Upgrading
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please note, that upgrade from version 0.1 will delete your old history!
|
||
|
|
If you are upgrading from version 0.2 to 0.3, move your ~/.wmcliphistrc
|
||
|
|
to ~/.wmcliphist.data and create new ~/.wmcliphistrc with configuration
|
||
|
|
(sample config file is included).
