hi! [19:44]

what clipboard managers work on Lubuntu? [19:44]

I can't get CopyQ and Parcellite to work with it correctly... [19:44]

Neither would paste the selected item from history [19:45]

I would have to first click on the item or hit enter, and then press shift+ins, only this way I can paste using these clipboard managers [19:46] main: I have been using Parcellite for years with no problems [19:47]

malinus, when you press ctrl+alt+h and then select an item either by hitting enter or clicking on it [19:47]

does it get pasted? [19:47] pasted? I just click on it [19:48] and then it's in the clipboard [19:48]

yes, pasted [19:48] ctrl-v for paste [19:48] (depending on your editor) [19:48]

so you have to press an extra hot key to get it pasted? [19:49]

because I do [19:49]

it's different from what I was used to on Windows and with Diodon [19:49]

where you only had to click on an item and it was pasted where you wanted it [19:50]

there's an auto-paste option in parcellite settings, i figure that's what I need, but it ain't working [19:50] I'm not following you [19:51] I just click on the thing I need in parcellite [19:51] and it's in the clipboard once again [19:51] everything I copy goes into parcellite [19:51] I don't click anything special [19:51]

the idea is not only to get it in the clipboard [19:51] what then? [19:51]

but also to get it pasted where you want it [19:51] I just paste it where I want it [19:52] I still don't get it [19:52]

with an extra hotkey combination [19:52]

an unnecessary extra step [19:52] so there is a hotkey to paste the second last thing in clipboard? [19:52] I usually need to find things that are pretty far back [19:53]

yes, there is - in ditto for Windows and probably in CopyQ for Linux [19:53]

no, that's not how I used to do it - you get your last 10 items opened in a context menu [19:53]

then you only have to find the item you need and click on it [19:54]

and thatś it, the item is pasted without you having to press ctrl+v [19:54]

do you follow me? [19:55]

malinus, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyHLa0SSEh0 2:57-3:07 [19:56]

he doesn't have to press shift+ins or ctrl+v [19:56]

the click does it [19:57] wtf is shift+ins [19:57]

a hotkey combination. [19:57]

that works in terminals [19:57]

ins stands for "insert"... [19:58]

and shift for the key on the left with an arrow, the one you use to capitalize letters... [19:58]

pretty useful in terminal emulators [19:58] aha, but what does that combination do? [19:59]

format your hard drive. [19:59]

i told ya already [19:59]

like 3 times [20:00]

its for pasting [20:00] so shift+ins just opens the cotext menu? [20:00] Still that one step of having to press ctrl+v doesn't seem that bad [20:04]

no [20:05]

if ur okay with wasting your life on this useless unneeded extra step - good luck with it [20:17] :P [23:05] how do i install lubuntu on a 16 GB USB drive without burning the iso to disc? [23:06] is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick correct? [23:06] (i mean, the page that answers this question) [23:13] appears to be so [23:28] how much space is required for the ISO? trying to figure how much free space i can leave for file storage [23:42] https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2174630 implies 2 GB is needed [23:53] well, there's a maximum of allowed space of 9999 MB anyway
