x-cut-copy-paste

cut, copy, paste the ''x'' way in bash

why?

I use multiple terminal sessions and often have to copy/move the files around.
Using cp/mv commands is tedious since i have to type in the whole path to the file while the file in question is right there in the cwd on some terminal window.
So, i wrote these little wrappers to cut copy and paste in the x way.

Basically, you can do xcopy <somefile> in some directory in some terminal window, and then go to some other terminal window maybe and just do xpaste to copy somefile there. Easy enough i guess.

Tip: Use xpaste --peek to see what operation you`re about to do, just in case!

usage

1. Clone the xCutCopyPaste.sh to your home directory (your call)
2. Rename to .xCutCopyPaste.sh (your call again)
3. Add the following lines to your .bashrc:

    if [ -f ~/.xCutCopyPaste.sh ]; then
        . ~/.xCutCopyPaste.sh
    fi

4. Use the xcut, xcopy and xpaste commands
