GPaste is a clipboard management system. See http://www.imagination-land.org/posts/2012-12-01-gpaste-released.html for more informations about what clipboards manager are.

Some libraries are available for development purpose:

• libgpaste-core which contains all basic objects used by GPaste
• libgpaste-settings which allows you to handle GPaste preferences over dconf
• libgpaste-keybinder provides functionnalities to add custom keybindings to GPaste
• libgpaste-daemon allows you to write your own GPaste daemon
• libgpaste-client helps you integrate GPaste in your application

A default daemon named gpasted is provided, with two keybindings to show history and paste + pop the item from the history.

A simple CLI interface is provided: gpaste, with two subcommands: gpaste settings which makes the preferences utility pop, and gpaste-applet which starts the legacy applet in your notification area.

A native gnome-shell extension is provided.

/!\ Don't forget to run gpaste dr aka gpaste daemon-reexec after upgrading GPaste to activate new functionalities ;)

Steps to install it after cloning (skip the ./autogen.sh part if you're building it from a tarball):

./autogen.sh
./configure --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-systemd
make
sudo make install
sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/

If you also want to build the legacy applet, you'll have to pass --enable-vala --enable-applet to configure.

You can see everything I'll post about GPaste there.

Latest release is: GPaste 3.0.1.
