Remote Clippy Buddy

This VS Code extension installs pbcopy and pbpaste on your remote terminal.

• pbcopy: consume standard input and set it as the clipboard contents of your local computer
• pbpaste: outputs clipboard contents to standard output

Example usage

• ls | pbcopy
• pbpaste > ls_folder_contents

How does it work?

1. we create a couple of small scripts, pbpaste and pbcopy
2. when you connect to a remote workspace, we install these to the extension folder
3. we update PATH for VS Code terminals to include this folder
