gui

Setup:

Current clipboard gets stored into DB by storeClp.py.

As a crontab: Crontabs do not have access to the session which is needed for accessing the clipboard. Needs to be set explicitly:

* * * * * export XAUTHORITY=/home/USER/.Xauthority; export DISPLAY=:0; cd CLP_DIR ; ./storeClp.py

Stores the current clpboard every minute.

Choose from your previous 10 clipboards by calling storeClp.py, e.g. with a shortcut.
