Nextspace command line tools

[onflapp]

Add two command line utilities:

nxpasteboard - gives you ability to do copy & paste and invoke system services directly from command line
--copy copy text from standard input to the pasteboard
--paste paste text from the pasteboard to standard output
--service call service with text from standard input

for example:
echo "$PWD" | nxpasteboard --service "Terminal/Open shell here"

nxworkspace - invoke Workspace commands from command line

--open open path in Workspace
--open open path with specific application
--activate launch or activate application

I will add additional functionality (e.g. --hide / --hide-all) as it becomes available

@onflapp nice idea, thank you. I have some thoughts regarding these tools.

nxpasteboard: I'd like to have something like this https://www.manpagez.com/man/1/pbcopy. I've noticed 2 key points: it's 2 commands with quite clear short names and ability to specify pasteboard content type.

It seems like nxworkspace duplicates functionality of GNUstep's gopen tool. If it's extention to gopen - it should go into appropriate place (GNUstep).

General notes:

• You've misspelled "GNUmakefile" (capital "M" instead of "m"). It's not bug, but please stick to accepted file naming.
• It's better to move "Tools" out of "Applications" directory one level up.

I agree nxpasteboard should aspire to have the same capabilities as pbcopy and more

gopen closely follows Mac/NextStep open command, the idea behind nxworkspace is to provide functionality specific to NEXTSPACE. My wish list:

• open browser and select file
• hide / show apps
• inspect file
• recycle file
• alert panel
• file open panel

In my view, nxworkspace should be shortened in name to nxopen as that would be a bit easier to remember.
