SmartClipboard is a screen widget for displaying clipboard content.
If you're looking for a convenient way to keep track of your clipboard contents, SmartClipboard might just be worth checking out. This screenlet is designed to display whatever's currently saved to your clipboard, and it does so using a range of different interpreter plugins.
The way it works is simple: each active interpreter has the ability to detect and display different types of clipboard content. The first interpreter to recognize the content takes on the job of displaying it. With this in mind, SmartClipboard comes packaged with a variety of plugins for interpreting different kinds of content. This includes everything from file types and environment variables to images, spell check, and even simple matching.
To give you an idea, some of the specific interpreters included with SmartClipboard are able to detect and display colours, HTML content, ID3 tags, Google images, country flags, and IP addresses. Note that some plugins may require additional libraries to run. Fortunately, if a required library is missing, the plugin simply won't load without affecting the screenlet itself. For a full list of plugins and their requirements, you can refer to the README file.
It's important to understand that SmartClipboard is a screenlet, which is essentially a widget application that runs on a widget engine. In this case, the engine is designed to function with X11-based compositing window managers, like the popular Compiz architecture found on Linux systems. Until version 0.0.14, screenlets were exclusively scripted in Python and drawn using SVG. However, support has since been added for web widgets, which are essentially widgets that are written in HTML, JavaScript, and CSS.
Overall, if you're looking for a smart, efficient clipboard management solution, SmartClipboard might be a great option to consider. With its range of interpreter plugins and support for various types of content, it's definitely worth exploring if you're looking to streamline your workflow and stay organized.
