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).

    PS: there’s also another functionality of Klipper that I use from time to time: you can make the whole “killring” appear, and choose the entry you want to paste with the mouse: as you click it it’s entered. This is also bound to a key (in my case S-w) and works no matter which window I’m in.

      Which functionality is that? I haven’t found anything that enters the selected item directly, without having to C-v it afterwards. Besides, the mouse is a thing I want to avoid… I played around with some other functions, however, and I found out that cycling through the history items works fairly well for me.
