wl-clipboard VS kanshi

> things it doesn't support like xclip

https://github.com/bugaevc/wl-clipboard

$ cat ~/bin/clip

    #!/bin/sh

With the default config I noticed I couldn't paste contents from the selection buffer in some applications, so I added the following wl-clipboard calls in my hyprland.conf:

This is just kinda how wayland works. The way wl-clipboard handles it is it forks off and stays in the background. That process is what serves the clipboard requests.

On wayland wl-paste pastes the from the clipboard. On X11 replace wl-paste with either xsel --clipboard --output or xclip -selection clipboard -o

No, but there's a wl-clipboard for that

Linux isn't very pleasant.

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking.

> EDIT: I should another important one for me: xclip, read from and write to the clipboard in the command line

I just had a quick Google and xclip or wl-clipboard may be what you’re looking for. I’ve never used them but they sound promising.

For point 2 I found that wl-paste seems to share the windows clipboard. Taking a screenshot and then in WSL

Without digging into you problem, i just let you know one options/tool as an addition: https://github.com/emersion/kanshi

This works, but after a reload of the config the configuration is gone. Then I found this discussion and changed the line to:

Kanshi is not exactly what you're looking for but i stumbled across this when I was writing the dynamic display configuration page.

You should use different scale factors on each monitor. You can do it in your sway configuration, or use something like kanshi that automatically applies different settings based on what is connected.

If this fixes your problem you'll want to apply this fix: Disable Laptop screen upon closing screen. or you can use something like Automatic display profile switcher when you connect your external display to switch it to while also disabling your laptop screen.

I also heard of kanshi for monitor configuration, but I believe there's an open bug where sway reload breaks kanshi config... which kind of defeats the purpose.

kanshi should be able to do it.

Assuming your connected monitors may change - you plug another one in and then you want to move workspaces the new output: kanshi can help you with that. You can tell kanshi to execute commands when it matches a profile.

For this you can use kanshi.
