Script to manage searching, backing up, and collecting infinite clipboard history from the Alfred Clipboard History on macOS.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# This is a script that provides infinite history to get around Alfred's 3-month limit.
# It works by regularly backing up and appending the items in the alfred db to a
# sqlite database in the user's home folder. It also provides search functionality.
