Unless you need to test subtle issues like https://github.com/astrand/xclip/issues/20 "Not closing stdout when setting clipboard from stdin" faced by e.g. tmux users, something simple should be enough: #!/bin/sh -eu : "${XCLIP_MOCK_FILE:=$HOME/.xclip-mock}" while [ $# -gt 0 ]; do case "$1" in -i|-in) ;; -o|--out) exec cat -- "$XCLIP_MOCK_FILE" ;; -selection|-target) shift ;; *) # FIXME xclip treats all unknown options at any position as files break ;; esac shift done exec cat -- "$@" >"$XCLIP_MOCK_FILE"
