how to copy text of file to ram (to do paste later) I would like to copy the content of a file (string) to my ram memory. As in copy of a text so I can do paste later. Example: I have a file name: `my_pub_key.pub` and inside there's big amount of chars. Every time I highlight the text and do copy and later paste - I get partial of the string. Is there a (theoretical) way to do something like this: root@my-ip: copy-to-ram < ~/.ssh/my_pub_key.pub

to avoid any installation one can do:


cat ~/.ssh/my_pub_key.pub > /dev/clipboard


and you'll have it ready for a paste.
