Ringboard egui

Crates.io Version

This binary is a Ringboard client that provides a GUI built with egui.

Suggested workflow

To reduce startup latency, closing the application sends it to the background rather than killing it. Thus, it is suggested to bind a shortcut that executes the following command for fast clipboard launches:

# Run this command to generate the command that goes in the shortcut
bash -c 'echo /bin/sh -c \"ps -p \`cat /tmp/.ringboard/$USERNAME.egui-sleep 2\> /dev/null\` \> /dev/null 2\>\&1 \&\& exec rm -f /tmp/.ringboard/$USERNAME.egui-sleep \|\| exec $(which ringboard-egui)\"'
