Rust clip manager4/10/2023 ![]() Even my PC is heavily build-oriented (thanks to freecad mess), I got a pack of external dependencies for apt: (Number two is to ‘save into file’, which is possible, but undesirable). Nasty, but the only option within my reach. Unfortunately, there is no updates (5 years!) there is a complain for old Rust in issues and I can’t find it on crates.io. Yes, it just calls an external xclip binary and uses a less intimidating stdin/out protocol. The xcb bindings I consider the worst possible finale. I may be utterly wrong, but that means, no images. In source code of the library I see this: pub struct Atoms Ironically, at first run it have own source code in the clipboard due to obvious reasons. Unfortunately, given this issue (no binary support for clipboard), my PNG copypaste can’t proceed with it.īecause it’s gory, I will follow the post and try to implement those things one by one.ĭocumentation is scarce and there is only one example. I’ll start from, it looks as pretty high-level (given the gory details in the post above). My primal guideline is this article: Libraries rummage That means some of the stuff from standard is no longer true, and some stuff happening in the system is not covered by standard (f.e. There is a special standard ICCCM, which does not cover all actual usage of the clipboard.I omitted exact details of interactions (as I don’t know them yet by myself). Sender transfer one of the negotiated formats in chunks of about 256k. Receiver (Ctrl-V) negotiates TARGETS (available formats) for transfer with Sender. Sender (Ctrl-C) posses (starts to own) the CLIPBOARD selection. Not to be mistaken with PRIMARY, SECONDARY or cut buffers. For normal human this means there is a clipboard called CLIPBOARD. Yes, there is a selection called CLIPBOARD, handling Ctrl-C/V operations. There are few selections, PRIMARY (middle button paste) and CLIPBOARD. Every time I use ‘selection’ it translates into ‘clipboard’ for all other systems. This post have more to X11 than to Rust, but I try to work with it in Rust, so, it’s Rust domain too. Sorry for all-caps, there are deep historical reasons for it. Turned out, CLIPBOARD is a COMPLICATED in X11 and THERE ARE DEEP HISTORICAL REASONS for it TO BE PAIN IN THE ASS. When I decided that this is a good feature to have in my app, I thought about it as a small two/three-liner with a help of some small library.

However, a complete overhaul will be necessary within the next decade. Specialists say there is no immediate danger of the tower collapsing. When it was forced to shut for eight months during Covid, it led to a loss of €52m in income. The Effiel Tower is the most visited monument with an entrance fee in the world, attracting around 6 million tourists in a typical year. However, the company that oversees the tower, Sete, which is 99%-owned by the city hall, is reluctant to close it for a long period because of the tourist revenue that would be lost. ![]() Laurent Valdiguié, the journalist who investigated the disrepair, wrote: ‘We saw Notre-Dame burn, will we see the Eiffel Tower fall?’Įxperts believe the tower needs to be completely stripped back to the metal, repaired and repainted. One said: ‘In some places, a single layer of paint is being daubed on to existing layers which are flaking and not holding. ‘In 2014, I concluded that it was very urgent to attack the corrosion.’ The rest was said to be ‘flaking and crumbling’, exposing the 6,300 tonnes of iron beneath.īernard Giovannoni, an expert at Expiris said: ‘I had been working on the tower for several years. However, experts say that in some places, ‘rust has won and is eating away at the iron of the monument like termites at wood’.Īccording to a report by Expiris, which specialises in rust prevention, just 10% of the paintwork was holding firm in 2014. It was supposed to be torn down 20 years later, but was saved by scientific experts who recognised its value as a radiotelegraph station.Īt the time, Eiffel said identifying and stopping the spread of rust was the biggest challenge to the construction’s longevity and suggested it would need painting every seven years. Gustave Eiffel built the 324-metre-tall, 7,300-tonne iron tower for the 1889 world’s fair, to celebrate the 100th year anniversary of the French Revolution.
