Currently
clipboard_img()
fails when running under WSL, because xclip doesn't support the windows clipboard for images.However, the function
_powershell()
can easily handle the clipboard even when called from WSL. The only necessary modification is that the extension.exe
needs to be explicitly added to the powershell command, which does not break functioning for windows.Moreover, a check whether running under WSL needs to be added. I chose to check for the environment variable "WSLENV".
