This software is a port of the winclipboard plugin for Gimp 2.0 to the Mac OS X operating system.
MacClipboard is a plugin that has been specifically designed for Mac OS X. This plugin is a port of the winclipboard plugin for Gimp 2.0. Once you install this plugin, you will have the ability to copy Gimp layers and paste them into programs on your Mac. You will also be able to paste images into Gimp from Mac programs.
Gimp does not usually utilize the system clipboard for cut-and-pasting images. This is probably due to X11's traditionally cryptic clipboard system. However, the Windows port has for some time shipped with a plugin that provides this support. Fortunately, this plugin has now been ported to Mac OS X.
In addition to adding support for cut-and-pasting images, MacClipboard also provides access to system services for screen capture and scanning. This is a great feature that can save a lot of time and effort. Overall, MacClipboard is an excellent plugin that goes a long way in making Gimp more user-friendly for Mac users.
