Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Clipy/Clipy/issues/254

On some of my machines I would love to use Clipy (I've gotten used to it in previous roles) but I can not because I deal with sensitive information, which can not touch a HDD.

I have a RAMDISK I use for that information, as needed.

I'd like either:

A setting which disables the persisting of history data to disk at all, it lives only in RAM until reboot.
A setting which allows me to specify a path (which happens to be on ramdisk) where clipy stores the history data to disk.

(NOTE: It would be amazing if this only affected history and not snippets and settings too...)
