Hi, shall we have scrcpy handle some intent to get/set android clipboard directly instead of using keyboard event to copy/paste? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14243427/set-clipboard-text-via-adb-shell-as-of-api-level-11

It also makes copy from android possible.

IIUC, this allows to read from and write to the clipboard, not to actually generate the events (e.g. write text to the focused text field)?

IMO, it is a good idea to transfer keysym to android, where the keysym cannot be simply decomposed. Such as Chinese words.

pasting into android is easy and works as expected. However I haven't figured out a way to automatically copy the text from android when the clipboard is changed. Currently I use Ctrl-c to grab the content directly. The intents are injected into the gnirehtet project for PoC only...

Implement computer-to-device clipboard copy
c13a243 
It was already possible to _paste_ (with Ctrl+v) the content of the
computer clipboard on the device. Technically, it injects a sequence of
events to generate the text.

Add a new feature (Ctrl+Shift+v) to copy to the device clipboard
instead, without injecting the content. Contrary to events injection,
this preserves the UTF-8 content exactly, so the text is not broken by
special characters.
