I have been using Ubuntu for some time, but still haven't found what would be the most useful thing for me, a way of having multiple clipboards. So is there any software out there at all, or a built-in feature that would make it so that I could use different keyboard shortcuts to copy/cut/paste from and to different clipboards on my machine? So I could be able to do something like this to copy to multiple clipboards (and do very similar things to paste from them and also cut to them):
-
Clipboard 1: CTRL + C
-
Clipboard 2: CTRL + F1 + C
-
Clipboard 3: CTRL + F2 + C
-
Clipboard 4: CTRL + F3 + C
And so on…

You could also take a look to CopyQ on GitHub, it can manage (among lot of things) multiple clipboard organized through tabs.
Less straightforward to install than the accepted answer, but really really powerful and customizable. I fell in love with it :)
