I use KDE and klipper the KDE clipboard manager. While it's nice that klipper allows me to select which of the clipboard entries to use it doesn't meet some common usage scenarios. A common case is where I recursively grep a source tree and then edit files. In that case I want to use the file name as a parameter to my editor and then the grep term to tell the editor what to search for. It would be really handy if I could have a paste operation that also deleted that entry from the clipboard history so that the next paste operation would be the search term. For example if I do "grep -R foo src" and it tells me that src/lib/whatever.cpp has the entry I'd like to do a single operation (maybe ALT-middle-click or something) that pastes "src/lib/whatever.cpp" and then leaves "foo" at the top of the stack of clipboard entries to paste. Does anyone know if this is possible without writing my own clipboard manager? -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
