[feat request] Allow user to specify X-clipboard tool
See original GitHub issueI already have xclip
installed and use it as my primary x-clipboard tool. This project lists xsel
as a dependency, and I see that in rofimoji.py
, xsel
is run through a Popen
call. I think it would be nice if the user could specify their preferred x selection tool in running rofimoji, to eliminate the strict dependency on xsel
.

I have pushed a very experimental branch. If someone has Wayland or other tools running, please check it out and maybe add a configuration for your tools. Also, I’m interested in feedback regarding the architecture. I think it should work, but I hope it’s not slow…
Some more thought on this: As Wayland is becoming a thing now, I’d rather not depend on X. If someone knows of a nice abstraction for both, I’d welcome it (or a PR 😉)!
