mime-copy
A dead-simple utility for copying URLs passed to xdg-open.
Features
- Copy opened URLs to clipboard
- Notify the user via D-Bus
Installing
from source
Run just install inside the repository root. The binary will be installed to $HOME/.local/bin/ and the Desktop entry placed in $HOME/.local/share/applications/.
Alternatively, run just install-http If you want to automatically set up the example configuration and copy HTTP/HTTPs URLs.
If you want to set any other handlers, you can do so using the xdg-mime CLI.
- For example:
xdg-mime default mime-copy.desktop x-scheme-handler/ssh x-scheme-handler/telnetwould set up copying of URLs with the ssh and telnet schemes.
