Get pbcopy and pbpaste in Arch Linux

First you need the 'xsel' package.

$> pacman -S xsel

Then create aliases.

alias pbcopy='xsel --clipboard --input'
alias pbpaste='xsel --clipboard --output'

I guess it is pamac install xsel and not pacman install xsel (at least that you have the binaries in .tar.gz)
