Here’s a cute little wrapper for dmenu, similar to dmenu_run. It captures the output of the command and puts it in your clipboard. If there was a nonzero exit status or any output to stderr, it also gives notifications saying so.

#!/bin/bash ERRFILE=$(mktemp) # make a temp file to grab errors OUTPUT=$(dmenu_path | dmenu -p "clip from:" "$@" | ${SHELL:-"/bin/sh"} 2>"$ERRFILE") # grab the output and save any errors in a temp file RETURN="$?" # grab the return code ERR=$(cat "$ERRFILE") # get the errors from the temp file rm "$ERRFILE" if [[ -z "$OUTPUT" ]]; then notify-send -u critical "nothing copied to clipboard" else echo -n "$OUTPUT" | xclip -i -selection clipboard \ && notify-send "copied to clipboard:" "$(xclip -o -selection clipboard)" fi if (( RETURN != 0 )) || [[ -n "$ERR" ]]; then notify-send -u critical "exit $RETURN" "$ERR" fi
