Timed Clipboard Clear #4

Closed gituser94x54102 closed 10 years ago

gituser94x54102 commented 10 years ago

Would it be possible to add a feature that clears the clipboard after a user-specified amount of time? This would be mainly to minimize the risk that another program can capture the password of someone who uses Yubikey generated static passwords. If it can't be user-specified then an automatic clear after a fixed number of seconds (i.e.10 seconds) would be a great alternative. Thanks for your consideration.

We considered this and basically came to the conclusion that we'd hold off until we saw if there was demand for this feature or not. I guess this answers that question ;)

dainnilsson commented 10 years ago

I've committed a new version which adds an optional clear after 10 seconds. Expect a new version (0.0.2) in the Play store once we've gotten a chance to test it a bit more.

Dain, thanks a lot for your prompt response. It's refreshing to see a developer so responsive to requests for new features. Will the completed version also be published to the F-Droid (https://f-droid.org/) catalouge as well as the Google Play Store?

dainnilsson commented 10 years ago

Absolutely. I'll go poke Simon, as he's the one who usually makes sure that happens.

I just checked and fdroid finds the new release since it is tagged in git. If it isn't available in fdroid in a couple of days, we should ping the fdroid guys since they are the ones who actually have to push it into the fdroid repository.

I also tried to build it in fdroid, and it works if you update the metadata file to point at the new version. So all should be set.

I found out on irc that I had to prepare a merge request, but it is now done:

I was able to download the new version from the F-Droid store. Many thanks to Dain and Simon for getting this useful feature implemented so quickly.
