# Clipboard for macOS ( Works in Linux and Windows Also )
A Python-based clipboard manager for macOS that mimics the functionality of the default clipboard manager in Windows (Win+V). This tool allows users to keep track of clipboard history, set history size limits, and manage copied items efficiently.
## Features
- **Dynamic Clipboard Monitoring**: Automatically saves copied text to the clipboard history.
- **Adjustable History Limit**: Set the maximum number of clipboard entries (default is 20).
- **History Display**: View clipboard history in a user-friendly GUI.
- **Easy Management**: Clear history or copy items directly from the history.
- **Cross-platform Support**: Primarily built for macOS, but compatible with other platforms supporting Python and `pyperclip`.

```bash
git clone [https://github.com/pasinduanuradhaperera](https://github.com/pasinduanuradhaperera)/Clipboard.git

2. Install the required dependencies:
```bash

```
3. Run the application:
```bash

```
## Requirements

2. **Set History Limit**: Use the GUI to adjust the maximum number of entries saved in history.
3. **View & Manage History**: View all clipboard entries, clear history, or copy an item back to the clipboard.
