Hey everybody
I stumbled across this cool clipboard utility on the Arch forums. It creates two text files in /tmp : one for the current item and another for history.
It does not disable the regular clipboards so they are still usable.
I like to copy info from anywhere and have it automagically go to a text file. This is much easier than doing it manually by pasting directly to a .txt file.

I made a script to start Clip-2-Text (my name) which runs it in Konsole (KDE) and then opens the two text files in Dolphin.
I also made a text file containing two lines of "=====" that I paste between every selection as a visual separator for the history file.
An added bonus for me that I found: if I copy 1 or more items from Dolphin the paths appear in the current item .txt file and if I copy that text it appears in the history. I sometimes make outlines of file and folder hierarchies for various indexes and this script makes it very easy.
If anyone wants my scripts let me know and I will share them via GDrive.
Have fun
Vic
