Version 2.8.0

This is Version 2.8.0 with support for protocol versions 1 and 2.

Notes:

• You will need a client app to use ClipShare. You can find a client app for Android at apt.izzysoft.de. Its source is available at github.com/thevindu-w/clip_share_client.
• The clipshare.conf file in assets is a sample. You may need to modify it.
• There are multiple Linux server versions included in assets in the clip_share_server-2.8.0-linux_x86_64.tar.gz archive. They are compiled for some GLIBC versions (2.31, 2.35, and 2.38) with some libssl versions (1.1 and 3). You can select the one compatible with your Linux system if there is any. They might not work for other GLIBC versions and libssl versions. If none of them are working on your system, you need to compile it from the source for your distribution. The compiling procedure is described in README.md.
  • For Ubuntu 20 (Focal) based distros, the version with GLIBC 2.31 and libssl-1.1 should work.
  • For Ubuntu 22 (Jammy) based distros, the version with GLIBC 2.35 and libssl-3 should work.
• Windows version is tested only on Windows 10 and later. It might fail on older versions.
• There are two macOS server versions included in assets in the clip_share_server-2.8.0-macos.zip archive. They are compiled for Intel-based Mac and Mac computers with Apple silicon. You can select the one compatible with your Mac computer.
  • For Mac computers with Apple silicon, use clip_share_arm64.
  • For Intel-based Mac, use clip_share_x86_64.
• You need to allow the app through the firewall. Refer to README.md#allow-through-firewall and README.md#how-to-use sections for more details.
