Is there a way to get the selected text in OS X like the app xsel
does in Linux? I've searched here and the pbpaste
is equal to xsel --clipboard
, because the user need to execute ⌘+C to copy the text to clipboard. But similar to the xsel
, just putting the text in a different buffer by simply selecting it, i've not found. Is there a way? Any app?A OS X Configuration?
