Subject: Copy variable to system clipboard (as simpleclip)
Date: Mon, 7 Aug 2017 15:11:47 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170807231147.GA3447@mail.akwebsoft.com> (raw)
Using emacs 25.1.1 in graphic mode on linux ubuntu 14.04. Clipboard
manager is glipper 2.4
I use simpleclip routinely so that I can copy and paste from the
system clipboard without affecting the emacs kill ring. However, I
could use a function that would copy any string variable (such as
output from buffer-file-name) to the system clipboard.
Is such function available?
thanks
