http://askubuntu.com – Working with clipboard can be like a hell. Sometimes Ctrl+C just don't work and if you copy some text on, say, web browser you can't normally paste in somewhere else. Especially between Terminal and other programs. Sometmies you have to paste with Ctrl+Shift+Insert sometimes Ctrl+V. Is there any way to unify handling clipboard? (HowTos)

Adding URxvt.keysym.M-c: perl:clipboard:copy URxvt.keysym.M-v: perl:clipboard:paste URxvt.keysym.M-C-v: perl:clipboard:paste_escaped allows me to successfully copy text from urxvt to the X-Clipboard  (and then paste into Chromium using ctrl-v or shift-insert). However, I'm looking for a way that doesn't require the extra step of issuing the M-v command.

A very useful (Windows) utility I use is TenClips - http://www.paludour.net/TenClips.html

It allows you to create enumerated clipboards/emacs-like buffers easily using ctrl + f1, ctrl + f2, ctrl + f3, etc., copy to the clipboard in the first buffer, switch to the second buffer, copy without loosing our first buffer, switch back to the first buffer and paste, switch to the second buffer and paste

I am using Linux OS. I would like to copy some text in visual mode from Vim to system clipboard and then paste it in another shell. I tried the following :

In the .vimrc file inside /home/{USER} directory put the following :

vmap <C-c> "*y

After this I exited the shell and then opened a new shell and a file in vim. Did Visual selection and then issued *y. It yanked the lines selected.

Ever wanted to send a link to some app from Play Market on your device to a friend in GTalk? Try sharing it with Ctrl+C and this app will copy shared text into clipboard. It also has some useful options and history of copied texts, nice and clean Holo UI which is also available for pre-ICS devices.

When you delete characters on the command line using readline commands (e.g. Ctrl-U, you can paste using Ctrl-y, but where does it get stored? It does not seem to use X11 clipboard at all.
