parse and paste text

0001-01-01 53 words 1 min read

Lot of times, I copy the text but before pasting want to remove a word or make some other changes or add “wget” to the URL, quite common. So, I came up with this alias

replace='echo $(xclip -i)|sed 's/text//'|xclip -o'

and this depends on xlip, which you can install with

 

dnf install xclip
