## Description

It's a small client-server script which allows to synchronise clipboard

  between two computers. It's very useful when you have a virtual machine

  like VirtualBox without installed guest additions (Mac OS X guest for example).

  It works on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.

## Installation (both client and server)

1. Install [Node.js](http://nodejs.org)

    * on OSX use [homebrew](http://brew.sh) `brew install node`

    * on Windows use [chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/) `choco install nodejs`

    * on Debian based linux use `apt-get install nodejs npm`

    

2. Install clipboard-share with [npm](https://npmjs.org/package/clipboard-share):

    npm install -g clipboard-share

## Usage

Starting a server using one of the following ways:

    clipboard-share                  # Using default settings, bind to 0.0.0.0:1077

    clipboard-share 192.168.1.2      # Using default port 1077

    clipboard-share 192.168.1.2:1077 # Full syntax

Starting a client using one of the following ways:

    clipboard-share -c                  # Using default settings, connect to 10.0.2.2:1077

    clipboard-share -c 192.168.1.2      # Using default port 1077

    clipboard-share -c 192.168.1.2:1077 # Full syntax

    

Setting refresh interval in milliseconds (how often script will spy on

clipboard changes), can be set in both client and server mode:

    clipboard-share -c -i 100
