Unfortunately I encountered some problems. One drawback is that the history is not shown before the first letter is typed.
I think if you use mkComplFunFromList' instead of mkComplFunFromList that'll give completions for no text.
Another problem is that whitespace characters are not treated correctly.
Maybe the problem is your use of echo? If you try in your shell, you'll see a difference between these two: echo a b c def echo "a b c def" One way around this might involve System.Process, : cmd r = do io (readProcess "xclip" [] r) return () Or maybe the right thing happens if you just add quotes to the shell command: cmd r = spawn $ "echo '" ++ r ++ "' | xclip" -- Adam
