Do you ever need to save the output from one +command for reuse in several subsequent tasks? Do you ever find +yourself wanting some easy means of globally exporting data, e.g. +to a parent shell, to another xterm or application, or to another +machine or user? If you answer yes to any of these questions, then +xcb is for you. + +Xcb provides access to the cut buffers built into every X server. +It allows the buffers to be manipulated either via the command line, +or with the mouse in a point and click manner. The buffers can be +used as holding pens to store and retrieve arbitrary data fragments, +so any number of different pieces of data can be saved and recalled later. +The program is designed primarily for use with textual data. |
