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.
