What

A native clipboard component is now built into the binary. On Linux, if none of wl-copy, xclip or xsel is installed but DISPLAY or WAYLAND_DISPLAY is set, copy and paste now fall back to this built-in component instead of failing.

Details
  • It joins the already-embedded image and audio components, with on-disk copies available for x64 Linux.
  • Selected only after the three external tools are probed and none is found.
  • If a write through the built-in component fails once, that failure is remembered and the component is not chosen again for the rest of the session.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
