Main GTK3 application \u0026 UI\n├── clipboard.py        # Clipboard monitoring\n├── history.py          # History storage \u0026 retrieval\n└── settings.py         # Configuration management\n```\n\n### Icon Adaptation\n\nThe tray icon automatically adapts to your system theme:\n- **Dark theme** → `icon-white.svg`\n- **Light theme** → `icon-black.svg`\n\nThis is handled by the `_create_theme_adapted_icon()` function in `app.py`.\n\n## Development\n\n### Setup\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/vicsejas/clipmanx.git\ncd clipmanx\n\n# Install uv (Python package manager)\n# See https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/\ncurl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh\n\n# Install dependencies\nuv sync\n```\n\n### Run from Source\n\n```bash\nuv run clipmanx\n```\n\n### Build .deb Package (optional)\n\nReleases are built automatically by GitHub Actions on every `v*` tag push, so\ncontributors don't need to build the `.deb` locally. If you want to anyway, see\n[Build Guide](docs/BUILD_GUIDE.md). For the release workflow itself, see\n[Distribution Guide](docs/DISTRIBUTION.md).\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions welcome! Areas for improvement:\n- Additional clipboard sources\n- Clipboard search functionality\n- Sync across devices\n- More theme options\n\n## Author\n\nVictor Sejas - vrsejas@gmail.com\n\n## License\n\nMIT License - See LICENSE file for details\n\n## Attribution\n\n- **Icon**: Clipboard List icon from [Lucide](https://lucide.dev) under [MIT License](https://github.com/lucide-icons/lucide/blob/main/LICENSE)\n\n## Troubleshooting\n\n**Icon not showing or tray click does nothing?**\nA stale background instance may be holding the single-instance socket.\nStop the old process, clear the socket, then relaunch:\n\n```bash\npkill -f bin/clipmanx\nrm -f \"${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR:-/tmp}\"/clipmanx.sock\nclipmanx\n```\n\n**Can't capture clipboard?**\nClick the tray icon → Settings and ensure capture is enabled.\n\nSee [INSTALL.md](docs/INSTALL.md#troubleshooting) for more.\n\n---\n\nMade for Linux Mint by Victor Sejas\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fvicsejas%2Fclipmanx","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fvicsejas%2Fclipmanx","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fvicsejas%2Fclipmanx/lists"}
