Clipboard handy snippets

tmux remote session wl-copy style

insert this into bashrc on remote computer

clip() {
    local input
    if [ -t 0 ]; then
        input="$*"
    else
        input=$(cat)
    fi
    printf "\033]52;c;%s\007" "$(echo -n "$input" | base64)" > "$(tmux display-message -p '#{client_tty}')"
}

you can then do something like clip "literal string" and you have literal string in your clipboard on the remote host also, this is assuming you use tmux on in a ssh session, and this script is in .bashrc on the remote machine okay?

to pipe the result of whatever do something like this sudo systemctl status firewalld | clip

and that output is in your clipboard
