clipmenu VS gnome-shell-pano

I use clipmenu, which runs via dmenu. Works great.

You can use a clipboard manager such as clipmenu, or do it manually with xsel:

Tmux has this feature. Although I use tmux all the time in the terminal, I don't use it though; instead I use a clipboard manager as it works outside of the terminal as well. I use clipmenu, which I have set to a shortcut which opens it's dmenu interface to choose which text I had recently cut or copied to paste.

Thank you. How do you install clipmenud? Do you just follow the instructions here? https://github.com/cdown/clipmenu/

I solved the issue now. I used an older state of https://github.com/cdown/clipmenu because i could not manage to get clipnotify working. At the end I "just" had missing Xatom.h to run the make install of clipnotify.

It depends on the desktop environment, if you are using GNOME I personally recommend Pano, I think is the best extension for clipboard. Just make sure to install the dependencies before install the extension: Pano: Clipboard GNOME

I know that this is possible in gnome because Pano (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/5278/pano/) is doing it, but I don't really know to make an extension.

I recently switched to Pano and have been pretty happy with it.

Yes, the first concept I've made was a redesign for it https://github.com/oae/gnome-shell-pano/issues/185

In Gnome I use Pano for this.

Reading the comments I've discovered Pano Clipboard Manager and I'm blown away. I've been using Clipboard indicator for years because it's the only one I could find, but man Pano it's just on another level.
