Subject: substitute for xclip?
Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2022 08:58:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221019065805.GA17124@tik.uni-stuttgart.de> (raw)

With Linux I am using xclip to read the X11 clipboard.
Is there a cygwin equivalent to read the Windows clipboard?

My use case is:
The user copies file names to the clipboard and then starts a program
which processes these files.
