Of course there's a workaround:
 | tee file
qvm-copy-to-vm  file

You can script this and create a key binding yourself.

There are legitimate uses for secrets in dom0. For example, the
Qubes backup system requires the encryption secret for the backup to
be in dom0.

Well, "free software" doesn't mean that anyone else is forced to
implement whichever features you personally want for you in order to
give you all the choices you want. Rather, it means that you're free
to modify the software yourself in order to use it the way you want:

That's completely right and also the reason why I would not
want to create my questions about qubesOS to this board
somehow in dom0. But when I have a question about dom0 I
often have to quote several lines of text from a dom0
terminal and get those to an www- or mailagent in an appVM.
In order to avoid frustration, I think this should not be
too laborious to handle.

Happy to see that this topic (no clipboard from dom0) is at least known.
I don't agree that copying from dom0 is dangerous because "The user could
have secrets in dom0, e.g., keyfiles".


My passwords are in a vault VM and if someone messes up handling from dom0
it is very likely that he/she didn't understand the security concept behind
Qubes and therefore the user is likely the biggest attack surface NOT the
clipboard.

Please offer a solution where the user can choose (free software!!) to
enable/disable the clipboard (choosing means freedom).

It seems there is a workaround, can this be bound to a key (maybe also
using xclip in dom0)?
echo -n dom0 > qubes-clipboard.bin.source .

Personally I will not instal anything into dom0 that is not
from an ITL authorised repo.

Is a real PITA that the inter appVM cut and paste does not
work for dom0 - can there be a switch somewhere that says I
am going to be careful and do it?  Feature request?

Only for package names into dom0 and error text out when
things don't work - like just recently.

Thanks, Eric

Thanks Bernhard, that's what I also did so far, however it's
