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

On further testing, it appeared that the xclip itself cannot handle
utf8. On replacing xclip with xsel, it now works without problem. What
problem did you encounter in using xsel?

I prefer \034 to \266 as delimiter, since the later is a 2 byte
sequence in utf8 encoding. I'm not sure if tr can handle that. Why
choose \034? Because awk uses it.

on ubuntu, sh is not bash; it is the old sh.

# dclip-1.0 || Delta 30dic08

file=$HOME/.dclip_cache
size=10

if [ "$1" == "copy" ]; then
    sel_clip=$(xsel -o)
    sel_file=$(echo -n "$sel_clip"|tr '\n' '\034')
fi
touch $file
if [ "$1" == "paste" ]; then
    shift
    sel_file=$(cat $file | dmenu ${1+"$@"})
    sel_clip=$(echo -n "$sel_file"|tr '\034' '\n')
fi
[ "$sel_clip" == "" ] && exit 1

sed "/^$sel_file$/d" -i $file
cut=$(head -n $(($size-1)) $file)
echo "$sel_file" > $file
echo -n "$cut" >> $file

echo -n "$sel_clip" | xsel -p -i
echo -n "$sel_clip" | xsel -b -i

exit 0
