==================================================

|
|
|
*Copy/paste to the system clipboard from shell scripts*
|
|
|
|
.. highlight:: sh
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ``clipboard`` kitten can be used to read or write to the system clipboard
|
|
from the shell. It even works over SSH. Using it is as simple as::
|
|
|
|
echo hooray | kitty +kitten clipboard
|
|
|
|
All text received on :file:`stdin` is copied to the clipboard.
|
|
|
|
To get text from the clipboard you have to enable reading of the clipboard
|
|
in :opt:`clipboard_control` in :file:`kitty.conf`. Once you do that, you can
|
|
use::
|
|
|
|
kitty +kitten clipboard --get-clipboard
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. program:: kitty +kitten clipboard
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. include:: /generated/cli-kitten-clipboard.rst
