# lxclipboard(1)

clipboard utility for LXSession and LXDE

## NAME

lxclipboard - clipboard utility for LXSession and LXDE

## SYNOPSIS

**lxclipboard**

## DESCRIPTION

**lxclipboard** is a clipboard utility that enables copy and paste operations between X applications.\
 Since *lxsession* usually has this support built in, you only need **lxclipboard** if you are not using *lxsession* or if your *lxsession* lacks this support. If you receive a message stating that another clipboard manager is already running when you start **lxclipboard**, then you don't need it.
