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. http://www.sharewarejunkies.com/8c3/clip_cache.htm |

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. |

They always keep things you really only wanted for a moment and then clutter up their interface with stuff you never ever needed again. -- Skipweasel Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain. |

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 |

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... http://www.snapfiles.com/freeware/ There's lots of very good stuff there. -- Skipweasel Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain. |
