Re: [dwm] [dclip] dmenu-based clipboard manager

Thanks!
This tool is almost exactly what I've been looking for - a low-overhead
clipboard manager that could be used with non-gtk software.
One edit which I made to the code is I added an

if [ -a $HOME/.dclip_cache ]
then
    touch $HOME/.dclip_cache
fi

to the beginning of the script, allowing for me to wantonly remove the
.dclip_cache file to clear my clipboard.
Upon running the script the first time, I got an error complaining of the
cache file not existing. That edit would fix that error.

Best,
