Abstract

Clipboard is a temporary storage or buffer which is used by an Operating System for storing temporary data. Clipboard of Linux operating system stores data when copy function is invoked. It will also maintain logs of locations from which data is copied. When user press copy or cut button the location of file which is copied is stored in clipboard. When paste function is invoked by user, data is retrieved from that location for pasting. In this paper I have discussed how data is collected from clipboard and stored on hard disk. When user copies any data, its location is extracted from clipboard. From extracted location data is retrieved and stored in buffer on hard disk.
