Closes: https://github.com/cdown/clipmenu/issues/195

N-R-K commented 9 months ago

Very rough draft, feedback welcome.

EDIT: also, any plans on new clip{menu,notify} release?

I also noticed an xclip branch. Having (optional??) xclip support would also be nice. clipmenu is currently the only thing on my system that uses xsel.

Hey! I'm actually in the (highly belated, given all the xclip/xsel pain) process of rewriting clipmenu{,d} in C and should have a working prototype some time this week. Maybe you'd be interested in giving feedback/reviewing/contributing? No worries if you don't have time :-)

The C rewrite is at 70cc5d2b6a2027ba186f1555c0e114c53dc7c578 -- feel free to try it out.

Closing since this applies to the old bash version, but any feedback on clipmenu 7 of course very welcome :)

N-R-K commented 7 months ago

The C rewrite is at 70cc5d2 -- feel free to try it out.

This looks interesting. I'll try to test it sometime this week and report back if I find anything. Cheers.
