Pastebins are a really useful way to share snippets of text. However it’s sometimes a bit cumbersome to have to open a browser window, type in the URL, paste it in, click submit, then copy the URL to share with your friend. That’s why things like '''wgetpaste''' exist – small command-line utilities to automate this process and return the URL. '''wgetpaste''' isn’t the only one, of course, but they are all rather similar.‎

Edit

'''Klipper''' is KDE’s ''Clipboard manager'' – whenever you copy something, via right click and select <menuchoice>Copy</menuchoice> or <keycap>Ctrl+C</keycap>, it gets added to your clipboard. '''Klipper''' allows you to navigate through it – so that you can paste something you copied a while back, or set up custom things to paste, or even set it to automatically perform an action on the paste. The most common use is to automatically open a link in a browser if you copy a link from somewhere.‎

Edit

What we’ll tackle is to get '''Klipper''' to autopaste our clipboard item into a pastebin, and return the URL to us. So just set it up as shown below:‎

And you’re done! Copy something, press <keycap>Ctrl + Alt + R</keycap> to invoke the actions menu, click <menuchoice>Pastebin</menuchoice>, and now the URL of the pasted item will be in your clipboard for you to <keycap>Ctrl + V</keycap> to your friend. Neat, eh?‎
