# GPaste GUI

Simple and handy GUI for managing clipboard history of GPaste daemon.

## Usage

For example just set up a hook for hot key to call `gpaste-gui.pl`

(`select` mode by default) and select chunks you need from your clipboard

history by this hot key. You also might like to set up another hook for

`gpaste-gui.pl --mode=choose` to do another actions such as masking a password

with a given name, or you even might want to call it directly by

`gpaste-gui.pl --mode=mask-last-password` (run `gpaste-gui.pl --help` for

details).

**A good hint!** In any window where you see a list of elements (such as list of

clipboard history or list of actions to do) just type few symbols that you se in

the item you want to jump at to fatsly reach it without touching the mouse. Use

arrow keys to walk between all the elements that match a search query.

Make sure you have `gpaste-gui.pl` in your `PATH` environment variable. You

could create symbolic link referencing to it in `~/.local/bin` or in

`/usr/local/bin`.

For other details run `gpaste-gui.pl -?` or look at the bottom of

[this file](gpaste-gui.pl) where that help info is described.
