Use x11-misc/xclip: |
| 9 |
xclip -in filename_with_paste |
| 10 |
|

Add this script to you XFCE autostart. This can be done either by: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
1) GUI: Settings -> Session and Startup -> Application Autostart |
| 14 |
https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-session/preferences#application_autostart |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
2) Custom run hook: |
| 17 |
Edit ~/.config/xfce4/xinitrc properly (call xclip, then |
| 18 |
default xfce4 xinitrc) |
