pipeclip-0.1.0.0: README.md

pipeclip
========

This program pops open your `$EDITOR` or `$VISUAL`, takes whatever you
inputted into the file, and pipes it to the X clipboard.

As such, this program only works on Linux and BSD.

I've tested it on Arch Linux and FreeBSD.

Installation
------------

pipeclip is written in Haskell, so please install Haskell first:
<https://github.com/bitemyapp/learnhaskell/blob/master/install.md>.

You also need to have `xclip` or `xsel` installed.

Then,

    cabal install pipeclip
