I’m currently using Klipper, and it’s fine, I suppose, but I miss the ability to cycle through the previous clips with simple keypresses, like in the emacs killring (the only thing I miss from my very brief experimentation with emacs back in the day).

For the list of all clipboard items, ready to be chosen: Klipper tray icon, right-click → Configure clipboard → Shortcuts→ “Open Klipper at Mouse Position”. You can choose from the list either with the up/down keys, or with the mouse.

Klipper’s item-cycling doesn’t require more keystrokes than Emac’s. For example, what I achieve in Emacs with C-y M-y M-y I achieve with Klipper with H-v H-v C-v (no need to operate with the mouse). H is the “hyper” or “super” key – but the keys are fully customizable.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
