** Description changed: This is not a bug report but request for enhancement. Ubuntu 18.04 doesn't have pbcopy & pbpaste commands. - Mac users can use two commands, pbcopy and pbpaste to work with + Mac users can use two commands, pbcopy and pbpaste, to work with clipbopard in their scripts. No such "easy to use" solution is available at Linux! Could be pbcopy and pbpaste commands implemented at Linux? That will make migration of Mac user to Linux World easier... ;-) There are several articles how to implement pbcopy and pbpaste at Linux, most of them use "alias", something like this: ``` # mimic osx pbcopy/pbpaste alias pbcopy="xclip -selection clipboard -i" alias pbpaste="xclip -selection clipboard -o" ``` I think that alias commands cannot be used in shell script, right? Is it possible to implement pbcopy and pbpaste in the way to be usable in scripts too? These commands could be included in "xclip" package.
