Hi - thanks for this suggestion!
As you said, this can be achieved with patterns - I think for this use case you want something like:
^[ \t]*(.*?)[ \t]*$
(You could instead use \s
which would also strip newlines).
The downside with patterns is that currently they only add the extracted pattern to the board, leaving the actual clipboard selection intact. I can see an argument that this should be configurable to replace the last item instead of being in addition to it.
Let me know if making this change would be useful enough, of if you still think that an explicit config option to toggle whitespace stripping is needed.

Hi, thanks for the quick answer!
I've tried and noticed that behaviour myself allready.
I really like your idea of making it configurable to replace the last item, it's way more versatile than a simple config option to strip whitespaces.
from clipster.
The latest release 1.0.4
now has a pattern_as_selection
config option.
If set to true, this will make the pattern match be both the last item in the history, and also replace the clipboard buffer.
Combining this with the whitespace pattern above should hopefully do what you want.
Let me know if this solution fixes your problem.
