## Historique du projet et usages

Clipper is a small daemon or macOS launch agent that exposes the local clipboard to tmux, Vim, SSH, and other local or remote processes.

### Historique du projet

The GitHub repository was created on 2013-02-18. The official README frames Clipper as a solution to a long-standing tmux and macOS pasteboard problem: processes started by tmux often cannot directly talk to the system clipboard, and remote tmux sessions make that harder.

Clipper listens on TCP or a Unix domain socket, receives copied text, and writes it into the local system clipboard. It can run as a macOS launch agent or Linux systemd user service.

### Historique d'adoption

Homebrew packages Clipper for macOS users and the input package facts also identify packaging in Alpine, MacPorts, Nix, Debian, and Ubuntu contexts. GitHub repository metadata showed hundreds of stars, indicating durable usage in the tmux and remote-shell niche.

### Modes d'utilisation

The README shows tmux bindings using `copy-pipe` or `copy-pipe-and-cancel` with netcat or socat, Vim mappings that send yanked text to Clipper, shell aliases such as `clip="nc localhost 8377"`, and SSH `RemoteForward` rules that carry remote clipboard traffic back to the local machine.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

Clipper matters to package nerds because it packages a very specific workstation integration problem: making tmux, Vim, SSH, pbcopy, xclip, launch agents, systemd user services, netcat, and Unix sockets cooperate. It is small, old, and practical, exactly the kind of utility that survives in package repositories because it solves one annoying terminal workflow.

### Chronologie

- 2013-02-18: GitHub repository is created.
- 2010s: README documents tmux versions before and after 2.4, reflecting compatibility with older tmux copy-mode APIs.
- 2026: Homebrew formula tracks stable release 3.0.0 from the official GitHub tag archive.

### Related projects

- The README names reattach-to-user-space / tmux-MacOSX-pasteboard as an earlier workaround for macOS pasteboard context problems.
- The README links to companion Vim integrations nvim-clipper and vim-clipper.
