I need a good clipboard manager.
-
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 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/[^]

Almost seemed like a phishing domain, based on another user having clipx.org. That is, until you whois the domain. Confusing... :laugh:
LOL! :-D

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. :)

Me too. Been using Ditto for maybe 6 months and have had little to no issues with it. I had used ClipX before a couple years but eventually it went flakey (surely due to VS2010, a plugin, or some other sw) and needed to be restarted constantly. I've been using software with this functionality for many many years and this seems to be the fate of them all. After a few years of faithful service be it an OS upgrade or other change they eventually get constantly bumped from the ring and need to be rehooked regularly until I find a replacement.

Just love it! The clipboard is one of the most used features. I programmed my keyboard's hot keys, that I never use (Media Player, Previous Track and Next Track), to work as the Cut, Copy and Paste. Ditto still works using these keys although, for multiple pastes I use Ditto's Quick Paste.

Clipboard Management Software = Potential Career-ending Danger . . . Well, any software that keeps around data you don't want left around can result in unwanted potential career-endings or other dangers. For this example, I'll use the hypothetical software called "MagicClipboardTool", or MCT. Day 0: You install MCT and head home. Day 1: You come in and you're coding along, using MCT, loving every minute of it all day long. WOW! great new tool! Your a happy programmer .. :) Day 2: You continue to code along, then you go to a secure (https) web-based email system to check personal emails. - You get a flame email from someone. - Now, you see, up to this juncture in your daily computer life, you're mentalities are "trained" and you are used to the fact that a single clipboard copy/paste will "go away"/be replaced when you do a different copy/paste seconds or minutes later... - However, things are different now, and your "mentalities" are not yet adapted/trained to MCT's data storage mode. - So, you reply back by writing a personal flame response and, while in the process, copy/paste a few sentences to different parts of the email to really optimize your flame response. - Little do you realize, in your heated-mindset of composing the response, all those copy/pastes of your not-so-clean-worded flame sentences are being "remembered" by MCT. - Another example might be some "personal" replies of a provocative nature to your significant other... including pictures you've copy/pasted. Day 3: You continue coding along. Boss comes by and you say "Hey, Boss, I found this great tool called MCT. Check it out." - You pull up MCT and it shows all copy/pasted items from the last 3 days. - You "scroll" through the "remembered" copy snippets and your Boss seyz, "Wait, hold on there. What's that profanity?" or "What's that provocative image?" Scenario #2: Someone else comes by to temporarily use your system & you step away to the breakroom and they discover copy/pasted stuff in MCT that is about them *and* that data is quite insulting. Scenario #3: The data copy/pasted isn't too embarrassing, maybe just a simple love note or other personal correspondence or business data that should only be known to identified individuals (e.g., not an employee who temporarily uses your system). Scenario #4: {included for laughs...} You're just simply a really bad programmer and use MCT as y

I use ClipX, It's free and does the job. http://clipx.org
@dorikin - pun intended ... "Ditto" yes - *groan* ... I already know.
