--- Comment #8 from Noah Davis <noaha...@gmail.com> ---
It's still not exactly clear how to handle the export all feature when things
like raw images and file urls (what happens when you copy a file) are mixed in.
I suppose file urls could simply be processed the same as any other URLs into a
line of text. The raw images might just have to be ignored or saved and then
converted to file URLs. Raw images are normally stored as binary data in the
clipboard, which take up a lot of space and are not human readable.

How do you want to use this data? Do you simply want to process it with other
terminal commands? Copy and paste it all at once to different documents? Share
a file containing the text?

Do you need it in the GUI or would a `klipper --export-text` command that sends
the text (excluding raw images) to stdout suffice?
