Linux Version
How do I install the debian packet?
There are several possibilities. The easiest method in Ubuntu is
to doubleclick it and install it with the software-center.
Another way is via the console:
> sudo dpkg -i omnicopy_2.0.5-1_all.deb
OS X Version
Gatekeeper blocks OmniCopy. What should I do?
If you start the App with a double-click you will get a message
from Gatekeeper.
I currently don't have an OSX-Dev-Account and therefore OmniCopy
is not signed yet.
You should move OmniCopy to your Programs folder and
then start it the first time with a Right-Click (Control-Click)
and press the "open" item. Then you can open the app with another
click of a "open" button (which doesn't show up, when you launched
the app with a doubleclick). After this procedure, you can start
it just like you are used to.

General Questions
What does Onmicopy do?
OmniCopy is a cloud clipboard that synchronizes via Dropbox.
And What does that really mean?
It means that, when you copy some text, this text will be uploaded
to a file on your private Dropbox account. Only you have access to that file:
"Dropbox/Apps/OmniCopy/Clipboard.txt". All of your devices then download that
file and in this way your text is avaiable on all of your devices.
When I delete the clipboard list, why are there still elements in the list?
This is intentional behavior. The list is in fact cleared, but the clipboard itself is not. This way, the current clipboard of all connected devices is automatically uploaded again, resulting in a list with some entries. I think that that is a better behavior than deleting the clipboard on all connected devices, which would be the only chance to have an empty list.
