It is understandable.
Btw. I'm testing if clipit can replace parcellite.
• root@archlinux /usr/bin
# mv -i parcellite parcellite.ori && ln -s clipit parcellite
Temporarily, just to see how far one could go.
• rocketmouse@archlinux ~
$ grep parc .config/openbox/autostart
(sleep 1 && parcellite -n) &
Not really and this doesn't change when it's "correctly" startet via
clipit -n. There are seemingly no options for the window position. Some
windows appear at the cursor position, the menu appears at the upper
right corner, but not after pushing <Ctrl><Alt>P, it appears after first
pushing <Ctrl><Alt>P followed by pushing <Ctrl><Alt>F.

Let's see if I can get used to it. Hm? Maybe copying quotes from the
Evolution MUA works better with clipit.
