Go-Clipboard

Provide copying and pasting to the Clipboard for the Go programming language.

This particular project is a fork of clipboard for the purpose of implementing features necessary for CDK and CTK.

Any changes made here that are suitable for the upstream project are intended to be pushed back upstream and eventually not require this project at all. In the meantime, here we are!
