Comment on Show HN: Clippy – a better pbcopy for macOS that handles files properly

Comments

linux compat would've been nice

already exists, xsel and xclip does that, iirc.

clippy is a bit different from these - rather than requiring manual flags for MIME types, it automatically detects the content type. The idea is to make the CLI's copy/paste feel as intuitive as the GUI's.

I might tackle Linux (and Windows) at some point, but contributions are definitely welcome!
