I'm trying to avoid _costly_ shelling out to pbcopy/pbpaste.
    
    
    import osproc, strutils
    
    proc pbpaste() : string =
      var exitCode: int;
      (result, exitCode) = execCmdEx "pbpaste"
    
    proc pbcopy(content: string) =
      discard execCmd "echo " & content.replace("\"","\\\"") & "| pbcopy"
    
    if isMainModule:
      pbcopy "This is very \"special\""
      echo pbpaste()
    
    
    Run

It see a **nimble** package:

[Nimclipboard](https://github.com/genotrance/nimclipboard) which looks to be a 
wrapper for [libclipboard](https://github.com/jtanx/libclipboard) which claims 
to support _OS X (Cocoa)_

But it doesn't install successfully :-(

Any other suggestions?
