> so you won’t need the GUI open to use shortcuts

I've been looking for a Linux clipboard manager to use over SSH but they all error out with for example (on running SSH in Windows Warp to access a LAN Linux box):

     echo "doodah" | xclip -selection c
    Error: Can't open display: (null)

Here I am trying to copy to the X-11 clipboard in order to paste elsewhere inside the Linux box -- hope that's not too confusing!

Will your (eventual) clipboard manager work over SSH for this use case?

You can just connect to a running X session from an SSH shell; if your X server is on display :0 (usually the default), then you just

  export DISPLAY=:0
  echo foo | xclip -selection clipboard

This even can work with Wayland, where it becomes

  export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1
  echo foo | wl-copy

(Note that AFAICT Wayland sessions number from 1 instead of 0)

FYI

yack n 1: noisy talk [syn: {yak}, {yack}, {yakety-yak}, {chatter}, {cackle}]

      v 1: talk incessantly and tiresomely [syn: {yack}, {jaw}, {yack
           away}, {rattle on}, {yap away}]

Yeah I thought it was just a slang term. It's not a common word in Britain at all.

I'm no expert regarding the shell. I guess I've only spent 0.01% of my life in it. But I want to say "Hear the guy out". IMHO, there's _got_ to be room for incorporating new stuff, however good the old stuff is. The horse and cart were great, but the car, the automobile wow!

Slight correction: m-dash `Ctrl+k -M` or, for n-dash `Ctrl+k -N`.

What also works (though more cumbersome) are:

For m-dash: Ctrl+q u2014 and for n-dash: Ctrl+q u2013

My vim set up requires Ctrl+q but probably it's normally Ctrl+v, may need to check.

Having reading the posts thus far and having listening to, say, Indians speak English I can't help saluting thus:

Awe Kaiser

Languages are a hodge-podge.

> Awe Kaiser

This is actually closer to the original Latin pronunciation than the modern English pronunciation of "Ave Caesar".

That's how you'd pretty much pronounce it in Latin.

"Ah-way", IIRC, and yep the C was a hard C.

Is this a deliberate replacement for Trevelyan?

Hey, trying to help here, ok.

I added today's date (in the format 2025-02-25) into the input box and expected it to at least give me the option to convert to epoch time or something. But it returned:

Local: Invalid Date UTC: Invalid Date

It's not as intuitive as I thought it would be. Best of luck.

Ah it currently only supports epoch time to readable date, not the other way around. Will consider this as a feature request!

In the west of Ireland there are two lakes: Lough Yganavan and Lough Nambrackdarrig.

The spellings come from the anglicisation of

1. Sandy Lake and

2. Red Trout Lake

so the namers kept things simple in their native tongue but now the names are almost indecipherable.

That seems common enough.

Since when did gentlemen pull rugs? It seems antithetical to the behaviour of what I understand by 'gentleman'.

I found that SEARCH returns the file # that the search pattern is in. Hope that helps.
