      Mike?... Is that you? :laugh: He had a pager and he would look at it all the time like he had important business to attend to.

      It was broke, so I fixed it.

                I am currently doing a lot of copy-pasting between various documents in several different applications, and although I have tried a couple of clipboard managers, neither of them hit the spot. I don't mind coughing up some wonga for it, but it should be quick to use - say, like a drop-down list from the top of the screen showing the last dozen or so clips, but just the first one or two lines of each clip. I don't want something that takes up a lot of screen real estate all the time. Does anybody have any suggestions? A large amount of (virtual) bacon may be available as a reward. :)

                      Use ClipX, it remember as many as you want it too. Beside text it also remembers picture that is in the clipboard. Take a look here: http://bluemars.org/clipx

                        I stay faithful to Clipmate (http://clipmate.com/[^]. Development's gone a bit quiet of late, but still the best for me.

                          I've been using ClipX [^]for a couple of years now. Very minimalistic and does exactly what it's supposed to do. Give it a try.

                                I stopped using a clipboard manager, when I started using KeePass, so passwords wouldn't be stored. Even though in Tools->Options there is a "Use 'Clipboard Viewer Ignore' clipboard format (not recommended)," just having the lack of recommendation kept me at bay. Then, your post compelled me to research this again. After finding this KeePass Forums[^] posting reply from Dominik Reichl, I decided to test it out. No problems so far, even with MS Word 2010 Clipboard Extender.

                                  Yankee Clipper is pretty good. and Used to be free. DOesn't look like it is anymore though. However, I've used ClipCache for ages. it's not free, but it's cheap and it works really well. Has all sorts of options for organizing clips, can store images and text, can edit clips, etc. http://www.xrayz.co.uk/clipcache/[^]

                                      I built one such program, which i've been using on my own PC for over a year now (VB.Net - sorry for those who hate that language). I'll gladly post code and .executable here if anyone's interested. It is loosely based on the concept of ClipMate (www.thornsoft.com), a commercial program. Keeps entire clip history with date added, organizable into folders,stuff like that.

                                        My Mum's husband runs m8software, who specialise in clipboard solutions - check out Spartan - I should think that'll probably do everything you might want a clipboard to do... http://m8software.com/clipboards/spartan/spartan.htm[^]

                                          I wrote OrangeNote in WPF a while back that handles text clippings and extends the clipboard, but I'm not actively developing it at the moment. If you like it I could probably throw you a pro license together, but the basic edition probably does everything you need. It's Windows-only, but has a few neat tricks I'm somewhat proud of. :)
