Xerox is a copy + paste module for python. It’s aim is simple: to be as incredibly simple as possible.
Supported platforms are currently OS X, X11 (Linux, BSD, etc.), and Windows.
If you can make it simpler, please fork.
Usage
Usage is as follows:
xerox.copy(u'some string')
And to paste:
>>> xerox.paste() u'some string'
On Linux you can optionally also copy into the X selection clipboard for middle-click-paste capability:
xerox.copy(u'Some string', xsel=True)
And you can choose to paste from the X selection rather than the system clipboard:
xerox.paste(xsel=True)
And, that’s it.
Command Line
To copy:
$ xerox some string
or:
$ echo some string | xerox
To paste:
>>> xerox some string
Installation
To install Xerox, simply:
$ pip install xerox
Note: If you are installing xerox on Windows, you will also need to install the pywin32 module.
