I can't put proper citations and code samples here, because the YouTube censors them, but if You look up my mmmv_userspace_distro_t1 project from SourceForge (username martinvahi) or GitHub (username martinvahi), then at some point the code might appear there. The demo at this video is using Windows clipboard from WSL, but a Linux version uses xclip in stead of the exe-files and the rules, as of 2023_05, seem to be:

Clipboard to file:

    xclip -out the_Bash_greater_than_sign_is_censored_by_YouTube  ./the_copied_text_from_clipboard.txt

File to clipboard:

    xclip -selection c -in the_Bash_less_than_sign_is_censored_by_YouTube ./the_useful_text_to_clipboard.txt 

Thank You for watching this video.
