After an initial run, your user configuration will found in:

~/.config/gtk3app/clipboardmanager/config-?.?.rbon

At top of the file you will find the available tasks:

{
  Tasks!: {
    calculator: [
      "^([\\d\\.\\+\\-\\*\\/\\%\\(\\) ]{3,80})$",
      :reply,
      true
    ],
    dictionary: [
      "^(\\w+)$",
      :bashit,
      true,
      "xdg-open 'https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/$1'"
    ],
    url: [
      "^https?://\\w[\\-\\+\\.\\w]*(\\.\\w+)(:\\d+)?(/\\S*)?$",
      :open,
      true
    ],
    espeak: [
      ".{40,}",
      :espeak,
      true
    ]
  },
  # ...
}

It is by this configuration that one can modify and add tasks. Note that this is an RBON file. ClipboardManager has four tasks methods:

• :bashit will take a command to be run by the system.
• :open will xdg-open the clip.
• :espeak will espeak the clip.
• :reply will eval the clip and display a message with the result.

With the boolean true value the clipboard will clear on the matched task. If you don't want the clipboard cleared on a matched task, set the boolean value to false.

Note that :bashit requires a extra command string which it will substitute $0, $1, $2... with match data. It then passes the string to system.

The :caculator task will run when the clip looks like a bunch of number being operated.

The :espeak task will run when the clip is at least 80 characters long. It will have espeak read the text.
