ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. Installation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The ZIP file was created with INFO-ZIP. I assume you have unzipped it as you
are reading this!
UNZIP the programs to a directory somewhere useful, like a directory on your
PATH if you want to use ClipPipe or PipeClip.exe
Note that the EMX runtime dlls are required.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. ClipView ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
*** WARNING *** WARNING *** WARNING ****
As from ClipView 1.6 the format of the .ClipSave file has changed. It is NOT,
repeat NOT backwards compatible.
If you are updating from a previous version then ClipView should cope but in
case of problems please delete your .ClipSave file(s) first.
Sorry for any inconvenience. *** WARNING *** WARNING *** WARNING ***
ClipView gives multiple text clipboards. It is based, visually, on the Unix
utility cutview. But it is not a port. ClipView traps the write to clipboard
messages and, if textual, copies them.
Each clip is presented in ClipView as a single line containing two buttons and
a one line list box. (Note that on install, or if a .ClipSave file cannot be
found, then ClipView will only show one line - the current clipboard contents.)
Clips may be edited, printed and saved.
The current contents of the clipboard may be changed by selecting a different
clip to be the current one.
Note: The only sizing operation allowed is to make the window wider.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.1. Other Viewers ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Note that ClipView only uses the text portion of the clipboard.
Starting a similar program, such as the clipboard viewer itself, may disable
ClipView, as only one program can trap the messages at a time.
ClipView is a "well behaved" clipboard viewer in that it will pass on
WM_DRAWCLIPBOARD messages to any previously registered clipboard viewer. It
will also restore a previous viewer on exit if it is still valid.
Clearly any clipboard viewer that is not "well behaved" will "break the chain"
as it were, which is why I said may in the first paragraph of this section.
It follows from the above that it is possible to have more than one ClipView
running for those of you who must have more than 21 clips. (Hint. Fill one with
your locked clips and turn off capture for that instance.)
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.2. Startup Options ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
ClipView can be run from the command line or program object - I stick one on my
xcentre. There are six start up options:
-a Autosave all clips at program close
-f Filename to save clips as - default .ClipSave - Files will be saved in
the path contained in the HOME environmental variable, or the working
directory.
-h mins Number of minutes of inactivity before ClipView will autohide
-m Start minimised
-o Always stay on top
-u Unhide on copy to clipboard
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.3. Clips ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Each clip is represented by one line in the viewer. The line is made up of two
buttons and a list box.
Operations on the clips may be done either by using the Clips menu or the right
mouse button (RMB) on the desired clip. Some operations such as Edit and Print
can only be done via the RMB as a clip must be selected.
The first button (select) shows by a '>' which clip is the current clipboard
contents. This rotates round the 'free' lines each time a clip action is made.
To restore to the clipboard a previously taken clip just click the select
button before pasting.
The second button (lock) shows an open padlock if the clip is open and a closed
padlock if the clip is locked. A locked clip can be selected like an unlocked
one, but will never get overwritten. For example I keep my email address in a
locked clip. A locked clip must be unlocked in order to use RMB functions on
it.
The list box shows the clip. The clip may be edited in situ, by double
clicking or by RMB pop up, provided it is unlocked.
Locking the last free clip will generate a further free line up to a maximum of
twenty one. You can also add lines via the RMB pop up or the Clips menu. The
pop up allows clips to be added, deleted, printed, edited or the whole lot
saved to a file called '.ClipSave'. This file will either reside in the
directory you ran ClipView from or in your HOME environmental variable if
present. Restarting ClipView with a .ClipSave file restores all previous clips
and button states. However, the oldest unlocked line will be overwritten by the
current clipboard contents.
When a write clipboard operation, from anywhere, happens ClipView will
overwrite the oldest unlocked clip it has (LRU), unless the text is already in
one of the clips in which case only the timestamp is updated. This means that
after time the clips can appear in the ClipView window in an odd order.
Starting from scratch they will rotate around the rows, but as you for example
make a different one current, it will change the timestamp for that clip and
hence the overwrite order.
Clip capture can be toggled on or off from within ClipView.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.3.1. Add Clip line ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
From the RMB or Clips menu this will add another clip line to the bottom of
the window up to a maximum of 21.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.3.2. Delete Last Clip line ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
From the RMB or Clips menu this will delete the bottom clip line. Regardless of
its lock state
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.3.3. Save Clips ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
ClipView needs to know where to save the clips.
If a HOME environmental variable is found then that will be used, otherwise the
current working directory is used. The -f switch at start up can be used to
override the file name. Default is .ClipSave.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.3.4. Edit Clip line ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Editing clips can be done either in situ or by double clicking a clip line or
RMB and selecting 'Edit' from the pop up menu. Select 'Save' in the editor and
then exit the editor to update the clip.
ClipView needs some temporary space for clip edits. For this it assumes a TMP
environmental variable exists that points to a temporary directory. Clip edits
are saved as pid.clip#.tmp and removed after use.
Note that the edit session is running asynchronously with ClipView. This has
several implications:
1. Any action in the editor that writes to the clipboard will be seen by
ClipView.
2. When saved back, it is possible that normal clip rotation has already
overwritten the clip with a new value and saving will overwrite it again.
Thus losing a later clip. (I have yet to work out a locking strategy and
I am not sure if it is worth the effort.)
3. When editing the current clip, either in situ or via the editor, is
finished and if it is still the current clip, then ClipView updates the
contents of the clipboard.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.3.5. Print Clip line ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This RMB option will cause the selected clip to be:
Printed to a printer
Saved to a file
Appended to a file
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.3.5.1. To Printer ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This RMB option will print the selected clip to the selected device:
LPT1
LPT2
COM1
COM2
COM3
COM4
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.3.5.2. To File ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This RMB option will cause the selected clip to be written to a file.
If the file exists it will be overwritten.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.3.5.3. Append To File ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This RMB option will cause the selected clip to be appended to an existing
file.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.4. Options ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
NB The settings of the "Options" are not saved across invocations, only the
clips and the lock states.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.4.1. On Top ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If started with the -o switch, ClipView will "stay on top" of other windows.
This option may be toggled from the Options menu.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.4.2. Autohide ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If started with the -h nnn switch, ClipView will autohide after the nominated
number of minutes of inactivity. It will reappear by any of the normal methods
for viewing a minimised window or, optionally, a new copy/cut to the clipboard.
Inactive means no mouse activity in the ClipView window and no new text in the
clipboard.
Autohide can be toggled on or off from within ClipView and will switch between
hiding and not hiding. If started with -h then the hide time will be restored.
If not started with -h then toggling it on will set it to 1 minute. There is no
way to alter the hide time once started.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.4.3. Unhide on Copy ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If started with the -u switch ClipView will front itself, if minimised, when a
write text operation is sent to the clipboard.
This option may be toggled from the Options menu.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.4.4. Save on Exit ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If started with the -a switch ClipView will save all clips on exit.
This option may be toggled from the Options menu.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.4.5. Clip Capture ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You may suspend ClipView capturing clipboard draws by toggling this option.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4. ClipPrint ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
I do a lot of remote support work and, at some unearthly time in the morning,
have several telnet sessions open as well as 3270. What I need for the
postmortem at the office is some evidence. It's all there in various sessions
and their history buffers, but I only want odd bits. Copying with the mouse is
fine but then what? Would you believe that the clipboard viewer WON'T PRINT! So
I wrote ClipPrint. Put it on your toolbar/launchpad and one click will print
the text contents of the clipboard.
Drag the ClipPrint program to the launchpad, Xcentre or whatever.
If you don't print to LPT1 then open the settings notebook and change the
parameter(s) to what you do use.
-p LPT1-2/COM1-COM4
-f filename - Prints to file instead of printer
-a filename - append to existing file. Note that ClipPrint will insert a
CR/LF before appending clips.
