Installation

Eruditto ships as a single .deb package. No extra runtime, no container, no snap — just install and go.

  1. Download the package

    Grab the latest .deb from the download section on the home page, or use the direct link below.

  2. Install via terminal

    $ sudo dpkg -i eruditto_0.1.0_amd64.deb
  3. Launch it

    After install, Eruditto automatically starts a background service. Open your app launcher and search for Eruditto, or run eruditto in a terminal.

Compatible with Ubuntu 20.04+ and Debian 11+. Requires X11 (Wayland support is planned).

How to use Eruditto

Once running, Eruditto lives quietly in your system tray. Here’s the flow:

1

Copy as usual

Highlight text, code, a URL — anything — and press Ctrl+C (or right-click → Copy). Eruditto captures it automatically.

2

Open the popup

Press your hotkey (default: Ctrl+Shift+Z). A searchable popup appears with your full clipboard history.

3

Search and select

Type to filter. Click the item you want. It’s copied back to your active clipboard instantly.

4

Paste and go

With the popup closed, just Ctrl+V (or middle-click) wherever you need the content. Job done.

Keyboard shortcuts

All shortcuts are configurable from the Settings panel inside the popup.
