Notes

• Automatically detects platform and available clipboard tools
• Falls back to alternative tools if primary not available
• Creates tmp file for stdin if platform tool doesn't support pipes
• Graceful error if no clipboard tool is available
• Content is trimmed by default when pasting
• Use --no-trim to preserve whitespace
