Hello dear community, After a long time I have been using `pass`, I have read the man page and read about the respected environmental variable `$PASSWORD_STORE_X_SELECTION` and I wondered to myself why isn't there a quick command line option instead of it. Most of the time, I use the default `$X_SELECTION` `clipboard` because this is what my browser accepts. Sometimes though, I need to copy a password to insert into a terminal with `Shift+Insert` and my terminal emulator it is using the `primary` clipboard for it.
Wouldn't it be great if the defaults would be kept the same and we could choose with a quickly typed command line option to use the `primary` clipboard? How about `-C` instead of `-c` for `primary` instead of `clipboard`. I'd also like to know what attitude to take on this matter, whether a new option `-C` in addition to `-c` will be proper, and perhaps keeping `$PASSWORD_STORE_X_SELECTION` for the default (`-c`) `clipboard` selection, or perhaps using a new option `-s` / `--selection` will be better? I'll be glad to know what do you think and whether it will be worth my time.
