- ******************************* Multi Clipboard v1.11 **********************************
- Release date of this version: 29th April 2000
- ********************************************************************************************
-
- Program Description:
-
- The contens of the Windows clipboard goes lost with every new item that is
- copied to it, so if you need more than one clipboard, you need an extra tool.
-
- With Multi Clipboard you have access to nine clipboard texts (slots), which you can
- select either via mouseclick when the program window is active, or via Hotkey
- "Ctrl + NUMPAD 1.. 9", even if the program is inactive or minimized to the
- system tray. This copies the selected slot to the Windows clipboard, from which
- you can paste it into your active application (for instance with Ctrl + V).
-
- The hotkey "Ctrl + NUMPAD 0" either hides or shows the program window, depending
- on the previous state, so you can operate Multi Clipboard entirely via keyboard.
- You can make the program window sit "Always on top" by checking the box in the
- options dialog. All settings are saved to disk into an ini-file "MultiClipboard.ini"
- inside the Windows directory. Options dialog can be accessed by pressing F2.
-
- You can assign every clipboard with an identifier string, which should be a short
- description of what is in the clipboard slot. This identifier is displayed as the text
- on top of the nine buttons, which opens the respective clipboard editors. As a default,
- "Clipboard 1" etc. is displayed on top of the buttons. In the editors you can enter or
- paste the text for the clipboard slots. If a slot is empty, the ID button is shown light blue,
- if there is text in it, it is light yellow.
-
- If nine slots are not enough and you need more, you can change to another
- of three available files, to which the texts are saved ("CLIP1.TXT", "CLIP2.TXT"
- and "CLIP3.TXT" in the options dialog. This enables you to organize your
- clipboard slots in a way that for instance one is for HTML editing, another for
- business letters, and the third for private letters etc.
-
- The text files are saved to disk into the folder of the program, automatically when the
- program window is closed or when it is minimized to the system tray. If you use the program
- regularly, you can put a shortcut to it into your autostart folder (Windows / Start Menu /
- Programs / Autostart) and check the "Start Iconized" box in the options dialog.
- In the rare case that another program you are using uses the hotkeys Ctrl + NUMPAD 1..9,
- you can deactivate the hotkey feature in the options dialog and operate the tool via mouse.
