Version: (using KDE KDE 3.2.3) Installed from: Gentoo Packages It would be nice if I could access the contents of the clipboard just like a file structure using ioslaves. This whould allow me to open something stored in the clipboard as a file in any appliation, save the a things in the clipboard to a file and most usefully upload something from the clipboard from a html form without having to save it as a file first.
Created attachment 6641 [details] First cut as a kio_slave for the clipboard (cut results from firefox) Well, I gave it a go and it was quite easy. The only problem is I couldn't send the attachement from the clipboard because, even though the class in the protocol is :local, konqeror will only send 'local files' in posts.... (this affects things like lan:/ too!)
This has to be Konqueror does not use KIO to open the attachment attachements... hence it cannot use any protocol other than 'file.' But this can easily be fixed and I will take a look at it if I get the chance.
Hmm, well apparently this has been fixed since KDE 3.2. I have no problem send non-local files (I did it with fish:/). I'm not sure why you are having a problem with it, though.
I think the KHTML problem was fixed in a 3.3 revision, since it now works ok.
I really want this! could be used to select an image from clipboard as kopete user photo(see Bug 140467 )
Has anyone done any work on porting this to KDE 4.x? It would be nice to have.

now all you get is screen shots, it's a three liner!" Do you remember when I 'fixed' the problem with the performance in Konqueror, by loading the icons that were in view (or that the mouse was hoverin over) instead of loading the 'whole damb lot' top to bottom... that was a three liner too!
