In my decade-plus of maintaining my dotfiles, I’ve written a lot of little shell scripts. Here’s a big list of my personal favorites. Clipboard copy and pasta are simple wrappers around system clipboard managers, like pbcopy on macOS and xclip on Linux. I use these all the time. # High level examples run_some_command | copy pasta > file_from_my_clipboard.txt # Copy a file's contents copy < file.tx
