This is the utility you will wish you always had. If you have used M$
Ofice Clipboard or if you are an Opera fan you'll know what I mean.

It can turn all the text you have ever highlighted and copied into a
database. I haven't really had much practice with it yet but it seems
awesome.

Harldy, it is feature rich and could easily replace a lot of
officeware. Mine's a freeware version BTW.

It is absolutely brilliant. Honestly you can save text and links and
whatever all in one visit to a page rather than clip and paste from one
window to another, then then lose it all when you browser borks on you.

Open a page double click on the link then highlight the title and
double click on that then the text you want to copy and it's all yours.

At 19 dollars, or whatever that is in real money, I'd be happy to pay
for it. So would anyone who ever lost a document. I spent hours writing
something just before I found it, then when I went to check the
spelling of a word, I lost it all.

I know I could have saved a heartbreaker by writing it in a Word
Processor but I didn't.

Anyway the browser closed, so I opened a text file and pasted the last
thing in my clipboard into it. I thought I was quids in as I had Ctrl
All-ed and then Ctrl C'd to copy it.

All I saved was one bloody word. Dragging and dropping had pasted it to
my clip board.

Someone with a lot of copy and pasting to do please give it a go, so I
can be vindicated. It really is a must have. I admit Opera has
something similar but this thing will work on other documents too.

After my list of anti spyware and av stuff this is top of my list of
utilities. I only wish I had had it years ago.

I've used clipboard extenders before and they've all succeeded in
irritating me immensely. They always keep things you really only wanted
for a moment and then clutter up their interface with stuff you never
ever needed again.

You mean they had no discard function or that you were a very silly
billie?

One last time.

This thing rocks. Rocks and roolz. It's function is similar in layout
to a mail server like T/brd or OE. There are any variety of settings
just like in word or a database. Don't miss it, it is fabulous.

But then I use a lot of copy and paste in my hobby surfing the net and
posting lists and quotes. It sounds like I am trying to sell something.
I got it in a computer mag freebie. I suppose the author must have
decided it was just too good to give away?

Boy did I drop lucky

Yes, of course they did, but it's one more thing to do. I rarely want
anything back that I've had on the clipboard, and when I do I usually
know where to get it from in the first place. The extra fiddling to use
it outweighs the benefit of having it /in my case/.

You can rant and rave all you like about it - but I just don't like
using them.


However, if you're shocked at the concept of freeware, look here...

There's lots of very good stuff there.
