- Clipper for Palm OS v1.x
- Interim Documentation
-
- Note: this is just a quick read me file to let you familiarize yourself
- with Clipper for Palm OS. There WILL be a full manual (with pictures) in
- time.
-
-
- Basically, Clipper allows you to have an unlimited clipboard. You
- can select some text, move to a different application, and paste it in,
- and do this with multiple chunks of text. An example of it's usage might
- be:
-
- Receive an email with John Smith's phone number and email address.
- Rather than have to jump back and forth between your email app and the
- Names file, you could select "John", tap the Clipper trigger and select
- "Copy Selected Text", select "Smith", then Clipper, and so on with the
- phone number and email address. Then, switch to the Names file, create a
- new record, and just jump from field to field, selecting the appropriate
- item from Clipper in each one.
-
- To configure Clipper, open the application in Application Launcher
- and select "Preferences..." from the options menu. This will let you
- select whether Clipper pops up from the upper left or the upper right of
- the Graffiti area. The "When pasting from recent clips, remove them from
- the list" checkbox determines whether clippings made using the "Copy
- Selected Text" feature are saved, or discarded after the first time you
- paste them. Clippings entered directly into Clipper itself have a checkbox
- at the bottom which determines this. The "Insert a space before pasting"
- option offers the ability to have Clipper paste a space before pasting the
- selected text.
-
- Finally, you can enter Clippings right into Clipper's main application
- itself. Just tap the "New" button and enter some text into the line. You
- can make an item into a sub-menu by selecting the "Sub-Menu" button. Then
- tap the "New" button at the bottom of the edit screen to create new sub-
- items. To edit an item or sub item, just tap on it.
-
-
- Clipper is shareware (or demoware) and will work for 30 days before
- expiring. If you wish to register Clipper, it's $12, and can be purchased
