# universal-clipboard.nvim
A **minimal** Neovim plugin that automatically sets up sharing your **system
clipboard** across multiple platforms. It addresses two common issues:
clipboard** across multiple platforms. It addresses this issue:
1. **Platform Differences**: On macOS, `pbcopy/pbpaste` is native; on Linux,
there’s `wl-copy`/`wl-paste` for Wayland or `xclip`/`xsel` for X11.
2. **Missing `+clipboard`**: Many distro packages ship Neovim **without**
built-in clipboard support.
> **Platform Differences**: On macOS, Neovim appears to behave nicely with the

> example, there’s `wl-copy`/`wl-paste`for Wayland or`xclip`/`xsel` for X11.
With **universal-clipboard.nvim**:
- If Neovim **has** `+clipboard`, we simply use `unnamedplus`.
- If **not**, we detect which clipboard tool (`wl-clipboard`, `xclip`, `xsel`)
is available, and configure a fallback automatically.
- If we detect an external clipboard tool (`wl-clipboard`, `xclip`, `xsel`),
we configure the `clipboard` to use it.
- Otherwise, we simply set it to `unnamedplus` with no further configuration.
