Howdy John, Try this: xclip -selection clipboard filename HTH, Storm On Fri, Apr 26, 2019 at 09:47:47PM -0400, John Covici wrote:
Hi. I have some basic questions about gnome -- using 3.30 I think.
How to get a file into the clipboard? I tried xclip -r <filename> but
nothing happened. I know this because control-shift-v did not paste
anything into the terminal window.
I would also like to know if there is a way to open a file with
firefox and actually type its name. I see things to navigate, but I
just want to be able to type the name. Can I do firefox <file name> ?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
