- Short: Adds a history to the clipboard, v2.2
- Author: cmh@augs.se (Magnus Holmgren)
- Uploader: roger@daneel.augs.se (Roger Andersson)
- Type: util/cdity
-
- This is a program that I thought about writing for a long time (a
- year or so! :) before I actually implemented it. I first got the idea
- when I had used the history feature of PowerSnap (by Nico François) a
- little while. I soon realised that it was a very convenient feature.
-
- The problem is that other programs uses the clipboard as well. The
- history PowerSnap maintains only applies to the text that PowerSnap
- writes to the clipboard, not the ones e.g. my editor writes. And I
- thought that it would indeed be useful to have them in a history too.

-
- Features:
-
- o Easy install, thanks to the standard Commodore Installer
-
- o Runs as a commodity
-
- o Highly configurable
-
- o ARexx port with 40 commands
-
- o Multiple copies can be run at the same time, each watching
- a different clipboard unit.
-
- o Pure and therefor residentable.
-
- o Localized (Dansk, Deutsch, Français and Svenska included)
-
- o Uses ASL or ReqTools requesters
-
- o Various filter options, limiting the memory used by the
- history
-
-
- Differences from version 2.1:
-
- o When copying a non-text clip from the clipboard to a file,
- then ClipHistory would read innocent memory, and generate an
- incorrect (and often a very large) file.
-
- o More tweeking of the ARexx code. Made it somewhat smaller, and
- changed some other code to be more tolerant (e.g., stem base
- names no longer require a '.' char at the end. If not present,
- it will be added).
-
- o Made a few minor fixes to the example ARexx-script.
-
- o Added scaled menu glyphs (OS 3.0+ only), based on source
- code from term.
-
- o Date in About requester localized. :)
-
- o The ReqTools file requester didn't open in the right drawer.
