12 use Clipboard;
13 print Clipboard->paste;
14 Clipboard->copy('foo');
15 # Same as copy on non-X / non-Xclip systems
16 Clipboard->copy_to_all_selections('text_to_copy');
17
18 Clipboard->cut() is an alias for copy(). copy() is the preferred
19 method, because we're not really "cutting" anything.
20
22 Who doesn't remember the first time they learned to copy and paste, and
23 generated an exponentially growing text document? Yes, that's right,
24 clipboards are magical.
25
26 With Clipboard.pm, this magic is now trivial to access, in a cross-
27 platform-consistent API, from your Perl code.
28
30 Seems to be working well for Linux, OSX, *BSD, and Windows. I use it
31 every day on Linux, so I think I've got most of the details hammered
32 out (X selections are kind of weird). Please let me know if you
33 encounter any problems in your setup.
