@onflapp nice idea, thank you. I have some thoughts regarding these tools.
nxpasteboard
: I'd like to have something like this https://www.manpagez.com/man/1/pbcopy. I've noticed 2 key points: it's 2 commands with quite clear short names and ability to specify pasteboard content type.
It seems like nxworkspace
duplicates functionality of GNUstep's gopen
tool. If it's extention to gopen
- it should go into appropriate place (GNUstep).
General notes:
I agree nxpasteboard should aspire to have the same capabilities as pbcopy and more
gopen closely follows Mac/NextStep open command, the idea behind nxworkspace is to provide functionality specific to NEXTSPACE. My wish list:
Add two command line utilities:
nxpasteboard - gives you ability to do copy & paste and invoke system services directly from command line --copy copy text from standard input to the pasteboard --paste paste text from the pasteboard to standard output --service call service with text from standard input
for example:
echo "$PWD" | nxpasteboard --service "Terminal/Open shell here"
nxworkspace - invoke Workspace commands from command line
--open open path in Workspace
--open open path with specific application
--activate launch or activate application
I will add additional functionality (e.g. --hide / --hide-all) as it becomes available
