Re: xclip problem
As of now, I removed the entire graphical user environment from this disk since I was getting too much keyboard latency and probably install it later then I will return to this problem. Before that, I'll try all of this with a system that doesn't use startx to run the graphical user environment and see if I get lucky in there. For those that use startx to start their graphical user environments, does a way exist to stop the graphical user environment and return to command line environment short of powering down the system?

What happened if you don't set the DISPLAY variable (post the error if
any along with the command and where are you executing/entering it)?
Are you on Debian 9 (Stretch)?
Why do you need 'xclip' and what are you trying to accomplish?
Alt F2 in MATE could run the command in a terminal if you select the
appropriate option ('ALT F2' then press twice the tab key and press the
space bar to activate the 'Run in a terminal' option).
Single and duble quotes are frequently used to indicate the command to run.
The utility 'xclip' works as expected with the package provided by Debian 9.
It looks like you have some issues on your system.
Can you do a fresh install of Debian 9?

I partly know what's going on over here with when files I try to create. It's possible the monitor is off though it's attached.

xclip problem
When I use xclip it's with speakup running not orca so no display exists. Unfortunately xclip cannot handle a run without a display being set. I tried copying a link in speakup with xclip so I could run it in firefox with orca and link my computer to my dropbox account but that's not possible. Any other approaches to this where I could get a display set or find a better utility than xclip to get this done? --
