# `copybuffer` plugin
This plugin binds the ctrl-o keyboard shortcut to a command that copies the text
that is currently typed in the command line ($BUFFER) to the system clipboard.
This is useful if you type a command - and before you hit enter to execute it - want
to copy it maybe so you can paste it into a script, gist or whatnot.
```zsh
plugins=(... copybuffer)
```
# copy the active line from the command line buffer
# onto the system clipboard (requires clipcopy plugin)
copybuffer () {
if which clipcopy &>/dev/null; then
echo $BUFFER | clipcopy
else
echo "clipcopy function not found. Please make sure you have Oh My Zsh installed correctly."
fi
}
zle -N copybuffer
bindkey "^O" copybuffer
