Where Is the greenclip Config File?

greenclip keeps its clipboard daemon config in a TOML file under the config home on Linux. Path and rofi hookup.

Last updated

greenclip is a clipboard daemon built for rofi menus. One TOML file under the config home holds history length, image toggles and selection blacklists. Clips live in daemon memory.

The rofi side calls greenclip print with an optional theme. That pairing keeps the popup fast. Back up the TOML and every tiling setup behaves the same.

Where greenclip stores this, by platform

Linux
~/.config/greenclip.toml

History length, image support and blacklist rules in one TOML file. Clips stay in daemon memory. Copy with the daemon stopped for a clean snapshot.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move greenclip settings?

Copy greenclip.toml to the same relative path on the new machine. History length, blacklists and rofi theme travel with it. Clips themselves stay in memory, so only behavior moves across machines.

Where are my clips?

In memory inside the greenclip daemon. The TOML file only tunes length limits, image support and blacklisted selections. Restarting the daemon clears clips while settings persist. Pair it with rofi for the popup menu.
