Clipboard history and screen text capture. Clip reads the clipboard to keep a history of what you copy (text and images), in memory only; it never touches the network and skips copies that password managers flag as secret. Set the shortcuts in the preferences (for example Super+V for the history and Super+Shift+T to copy text from any part of the screen). Text capture needs Tesseract.
Note: Binary files aren't shown on the web site. To see all files, please download the extension zipfile.
