  #  Always good practice to update packages. However ask user if they would like to do so
  #  For explanation on how this works and why check out https://garywoodfine.com/use-pbcopy-on-ubuntu/

  echo  #adding new line

  then
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt upgrade -y
    sudo apt autoremove -y
  fi
  
  #  Check to see if Xclip is installed if not install it
  if [ $(dpkg-query -W -f='${Status}' xclip 2>/dev/null | grep -c "ok installed") -eq 0 ];
  then
    echo 'xclip not installed .... installing now!'
    sudo apt install xclip -y;
