Issue being a dysfunctional copy and paste after doing "go get github.com/atotto/clipboard". Command does not exist and does not work.
issuing "cat README.md|gocopy" leads to "gocopy: command not found"
Pointed here by a dev of another project as a possible cause of the issue, to see the issue I had there see the following link:

Will provide more detail if requested.
