    alias cpkey='cat <(cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | xargs echo -n) <(printf " $USER") | pbcopy'

    cpkey is what I use to copy my public key to the clipboard on my Mac. Use xsel or xclip if you don't have pbcopy.

    @chaimleib that seems redundent to me.

    @magicMirror Some machines don't put the username after the key, so I had to add it in myself here. If yours does, you can leave out the printf.

    As for the two cats, the first one joins the key with the username. The second one is used to strip newlines from the end of the file.
