;;; ivy-clipmenu.el --- Emacs client for clipmenu -*- lexical-binding: t -*-

;; Author: William Carroll <wpcarro@gmail.com>
;; Version: 0.0.1
;; URL: https://git.wpcarro.dev/wpcarro/briefcase
;; Package-Requires: ((emacs "25.1"))

;;; Commentary:
;; Ivy integration with the clipboard manager, clipmenu.  Essentially, clipmenu
;; turns your system clipboard into a list.
;;
;; To use this module, you must first install clipmenu and ensure that the
;; clipmenud daemon is running.  Refer to the installation instructions at
;; github.com/cdown/clipmenu for those details.
;;
;; This module intentionally does not define any keybindings since I'd prefer
;; not to presume my users' preferences.  Personally, I use EXWM as my window
;; manager, so I call `exwm-input-set-key' and map it to `ivy-clipmenu-copy'.
;;
;; Usually clipmenu integrates with rofi or dmenu.  This Emacs module integrates
;; with ivy.  Launch this when you want to select a clip.
;;
;; Clipmenu itself supports a variety of environment variables that allow you to
;; customize its behavior.  These variables are respected herein.  If you'd
;; prefer to customize clipmenu's behavior from within Emacs, refer to the
;; variables defined in this module.
;;
;; For more information:
;; - See `clipmenu --help`.
;; - Visit github.com/cdown/clipmenu.
