@ -26,6 +26,16 @@ To remove items from history, `clipman clear` and `clipman clear --all`.
For more options: `clipman -h`.
## Known Issues
### Loss of rich text
All items stored in history are treated as plain text.
By default, we continue serving the last copied item even after its owner has exited. The trade-off is that we *always* lose rich content: for example, if you copy some bold text in LibreOffice, when you paste it right after it will be unformatted text; or, if you copy a bookmark in Firefox, you won't be able to paste it in another bookmark folder.
To disable this behaviour, you must give up persistency-after exit by passing the `-P` option to `clipman store`. (Items manually picked from history will still be just plain text.)
