Subject: clear-kill-ring function
Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2015 18:24:43 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87pp00goes.fsf@skimble.plus.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1306 bytes --]

For a long time I have wanted to have some way of clearing the
kill-ring, and I have recently started using the "cliphist" package,
like this -

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(require 'cliphist)
(global-set-key (kbd "s-,") 'cliphist-select-item)
(global-set-key (kbd "s-.") 'cliphist-paste-item)
#+end_src
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

which is working very well to use data from "parcellite".

And I seem to have found a way of clearing the kill-ring, at http://qdot.github.io/conf_emacs/

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun qdot/clear-kill-ring ()
  "Clear the kill ring variable"
  (setq kill-ring nil))
(global-set-key (kbd "s-/") 'qdot/clear-kill-ring)
#+end_src
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

However when I do "s-/" emacs replied with

╭────
│(wrong-type-argument commandp qdot/clear-kill-ring) in ad-Advice-call-interactively
╰────

So what should I have in my function please to get it working properly?

Thanks
Sharon.
