See constructor (rootwin.add_filter(event_filter)) where the method which is mentioned in the mailinglist is used. So therefore I currently do not see a way to register a global keybinding without using XLib. However I would definitely be interested if you would be able to find one.

But i also want a windows version so im still thinling about how to bind vala with WIN32API function calls or make extern c calls, i hope i can still pack it in a "nice" class...

Well as far as I know exending a context menu of any application is not possilble. But of course a Plugin for Gedit can be written which accesses the Diodon history and adds it to the menu. There would be a Diodon service such a DBus needed which can be accesses from the gedit plugin. Unfortuantetly such does not exist yet however will be needed e.g. also for a better gnome shell integration <https://blueprints.launchpad.net/diodon/+spec/better-gnome3-integration> I will add this feature request to the Diodon wishlist. So it can be accomplished when all the needed bits are in place. Thanks for the mockups. Well as far as I know exending a context menu of any application is not possilble.

Well, either a sublist or a list directly into the contextual menu itself. Something like this: http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/6969/mock1.jpg Or: http://img823.imageshack.us/img823/8891/mock2.jpg A simple Paste («Coller» in the mock up) would paste the first item or you could right click and choose from the list to paste another item. Of course it is only a wish but I think it would become a great tool for people, like coders, who use a series of text or code snippets repetitively. Exactly.

I am not sure where you exactly would want to have the list of clipboard items added. Do you mean e.g. when you right click in gedit that there will be a sublist of items to be pasted below the paste item? Thanks for your comment.

I am usually using Clipper for which you can use a keyboard shortcut to show the «objects list» but it does not paste it directly. You still have to type CTRL+V to finally paste the selected text. Diodon pastes it right after you choose it, which is a good improvement. I wonder if it would be possible to have the list of text included in the contextual menu (right click of the mouse)?That would still be better. Thanks for this!! Really good work!
