Because sometimes you need to know *exactly* what's lurking in there, and `xclip -o` just isn't ceremonious enough.\n\n(Did it in pytnon for now.)\n\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n  \u003cem\u003eOverview snapshot showing clipboard navigation and content preview\u003c/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"screengrabs/screenshot-1.png\" alt=\"Overview snapshot\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\n## What It Does\n\n- Browse clipboard, primary, and secondary X11 selections\n- Navigate available MIME targets (because yes, your clipboard has opinions about data formats)\n- Preview text content\n- View images directly in the terminal via [chafa](https://hpjansson.org/chafa/) (your ASCII art dreams, realized; although my chafa's defaulting to sixel or whatever atm)\n- Vim-style navigation because some things are just correct\n\n## Installation\n\n```bash\n# Dependencies\nsudo apt install xclip imagemagick chafa  # Debian/Ubuntu\nsudo pacman -S xclip imagemagick chafa    # Arch\nbrew install xclip imagemagick chafa      # macOS (via Homebrew)\n\n# Then just download and run (or `chmod u+x` it first)\n./xclipview\n```\n\n## Usage\n\n| Key | Action |\n|-----|--------|\n| `h`/`l` or `←`/`→` | Switch between clipboard selections |\n| `j`/`k` or `↑`/`↓` | Navigate target list |\n| `Enter` | View images with chafa |\n| `r` | Reload current selection |\n| `q` | Quit |\n\nThe interface splits into a target list (left) and content preview (right). Targets with no data appear grayed out with a `?` prefix—they're the clipboard equivalent of \"it's complicated.\"\n\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n  \u003cem\u003eImage viewing mode with chafa integration\u003c/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"screengrabs/snapshot-2.png\" alt=\"Image viewing mode\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\n## Why This Exists\n\nStandard clipboard tools show you *what* you copied. This shows you *how* your system thinks about what you copied. Sometimes that distinction matters. Sometimes you're just procrastinating. Either way, you're covered.\n\n## Requirements\n\n- Python 3.6+\n- X11 environment (sorry, Wayland friends—patches welcome)\n- A terminal that can handle basic Unicode (so, any terminal from this millennium)\n\n## License\n\nMIT. Copy freely, paste responsibly.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjaggzh%2Fxclipview-tui","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fjaggzh%2Fxclipview-tui","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjaggzh%2Fxclipview-tui/lists"}
