About

Crouton clipboard integrates the Chrome OS clipboard with the crouton linux instance clipboard without running the display (so, only when you use the CLI).

Whenever you copy something on Chrome OS, it is automatically written to ~/.crouton-clipboard/data, and whenever you write to ~/.crouton-clipboard/data, it is automatically copied to your clipboard on Chrome OS.

this hasn't been updated in 4 years and now doesn't work. it says it can't access anything from chrome and theres no way to change that.

could not figure out the mapping file. install.sh echoed contents in chroot.. just ran manually. THe data file is propegated so i just use :r ~./crouton-clipboard/data.txt when i need it (usually a password or something one time use, so it dont mind not figuring out the shortcut). thanks!
