Hi 👋 just a small comment: instead of instantiating a new commandInfo every time readAll() or writeAll() is called, should it be possible to create a singleton:
var instance commandInfo
var once sync.Once
func GetInstance() commandInfo {
once.Do(func() {
instance = findClipboardUtility()
})
return instance
}And call c := GetInstance() instead of c := findClipboardUtility()?
It will be quicker since findClipboardUtility() will be called only once (at the first call).
What do you think? BTW, thanks for this PR 🙌

I considered this option, but it didn't seem worth the additional complication for a call that is unlikely to be called very often. If making this change helps the PR get merged though, I'm all for it.

Fixes #63
This moves the clipboard utility code from
init()to a function namedfindClipboardUtility(). While this has a minor performance impact if theWriteAllorReadAllcommand is called in a loop, this does improve binary start time.It also looks a whole lot less scary in system call traces. This is particularly important for programs that indirectly import but never use this library.
As part of the cleanup, I removed references to an unused
Primaryglobal. Please let me know if you would like me to put them back.
