Clipman is a clipboard manager for Xfce.
It keeps the clipboard contents around while it is usually lost when you close an application. It is able to handle text and images, and has a feature to execute actions on specific text by matching them against regular expressions.
Clipman handles only the default clipboard, but optionally it can also notice the selections. When it is handling the selections, the default clipboard will always be synced with it and contain the same data. By this meaning you can paste with the keyboard what you select on screen.
This is free and open source software.
