NAME

       Parcellite - Lightweight GTK+ Clipboard Manager

SYNOPSIS

       parcellite [OPTION]

DESCRIPTION

       Parcellite  is  a  lightweight  GTK+  clipboard  manager.  This  is  a stripped down, basic-features-only
       clipboard manager with a small memory footprint for those who like simplicity.

       Parcellite features a clipboard CLI. Unrecognized options and the contents of  your  standard  input  get
       copied to your clipboard. See CLI EXAMPLES.

       Look at the tool tips by hovering over each item in the prefrences dialog.

OPTIONS

       -?, --help
              Show help options

       -d, --daemon
              Run  as  daemon.  Use  this  mode  if  you just want Parcellite to keep your clipboard and primary
              contents safe.  Daemon mode just restores clipboard contents if it is lost.  It does nothing else,
              no clipboard history, no clipboard  synchronization,  no  icon,  no  command  line  interface,  or
              anything  other  than restoring clipboard content if it becomes empty. It must be run as the first
              instance, and will disable the command line interface and all other features of parcellite.

       -n, --no-icon
              Do not use status icon

       -c, --clipboard
              Print clipboard contents -p, --primary Print primary contents

ACTIONS

       Parcellite's actions perform commands using the contents of  your  clipboard.  "%s"  in  the  command  is
       replaced  with  the  clipboard  contents.  Use  double  quotes "%s" to expand env variables like $HOME to
       /home/your_name Use single quotes '%s' to feed your action with env variables  without  shell  expansion.
       Use %% if you want a literal %.  See the man page for gnuC printf (man 2 printf) for more information.

CLI EXAMPLES

        echo "copied to clipboard" | parcellite
        parcellite "copied to clipboard"
        echo "copied to clipboard" | parcellite -c

Hotkeys

        The  available  hotkey  modifiers  are  <Ctrl>,  <Alt>  <Shift>,  <Release>,  <Meta>,  <Super>, <Hyper>,
       <Mod[1-5]>

Preferences

       Right-click on the parcellite icon in the systray to access the preferences.

Behavior Tab

       Clipboards
              generally checking all these boxes is appropriate.

       History
               Check 'Save history' to save history on close.
               'Position history' - Set the location where history appears.  If  unchecked,  appears  where  the
              mouse is.
               'X' - X location in pixels. 0 is top of screen.
               'Y' - Y location in pixels. 0 is left of screen.

               'Max  Data  Size  (MB)'  -  Set  Maximum amount of data to copy for each entry in MBytes. 0 is no
              limit.

       Miscellaneous
               'Search As You Type' - If checked, does a search-as-you-type. Turns red if not found. Goes to top
              (Alt-E) line when no chars are entered for search

               'Case Sensitive Search' - If checked, does case sensitive search.

               'Ignore Whitespace Only' - If checked, will ignore any  clipboard  additions  that  contain  only
              whitespace.

               'Trim Whitespace' - If checked, will trim whitespace from beginning and end of entry.

               'Trim Newlines' - If checked, will replace newlines with spaces.

Display Tab

        'Show in Single line' does nothing.

        'Show in reverse order' reverses the history so the first entry is last and the last is first.

        'Omit items' refers to omitting characters that don't fit in the history window width. This is for
       display only.

History Dialog Behavior

       Use the Ctrl or Shift key in conjunction with right-click.

       If you hold Ctrl, then it toggles the delete on a single item.

       If you hold Shift while holding down right-click (this is like a right-drag), then it toggles each item
       as it enters the item.

       To complete the delete, hit enter.
