GPaste is a clipboard management system.
See <http://www.imagination-land.org/posts/2012-12-01-gpaste-released.html> for more information about what clipboard
managers are.
A library is available for development purposes:
* `libgpaste` contains all the basic objects used by GPaste and allows you to manage preferences and the GPaste daemon.
A default daemon named `gpaste-daemon` is provided, with five keybindings:
* show history
* pop the item from the history
* sync primary selection with clipboard
* sync clipboard with primary selection
* mark the active item as being a password
A simple CLI interface is provided: `gpaste`, with two subcommands: `gpaste settings` which makes the preferences
utility pop, `gpaste applet` which starts the status icon in your notification area and `gpaste app-indicator` which
starts the unity application indicator.
A native gnome-shell extension is provided.
/!\ Don't forget to run `gpaste dr` aka `gpaste daemon-reexec` after upgrading GPaste to activate new functionalities ;)
You can then run `gpaste daemon-version` to check the correct daemon is now running.
Steps to install it after cloning (skip the `./autogen.sh` part if you're building it from a tarball):
./autogen.sh
./configure --sysconfdir=/etc
make
sudo make install
sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
If you also want to build the status icon, you'll have to pass `--enable-applet` to configure.
If you also want to build the unity application indicator, you'll have to pass `--enable-unity` to configure.
If your distribution does not provide a appdata-tools package (like ubuntu 14.04), you can use `ubuntu-patches/0001-ubuntu-disable-appdata-stuff.patch`
If your distribution ships with gnome-settings 3.8 and thus a patched version of gnome-shell 3.10 (like ubuntu 14.04), you can use `ubuntu-patches/0002-ubuntu-fix-for-ubuntu-breaking-gnome-shell-API-compa.patch`
