Improve exchange buffer data management and enhance Clipboard functionality. Check out the options for accessing and browsing a list of files, bits of information, and notes captured by the Clipboard over a specified period and restore, access, copy, and remove them.
Clipboard History is a very useful clipboard manager. Its main strength over similar applications is that it is very simple, it doesn't take much space on your Menubar and it works well, all the time. The app can either run on the menubar alone, or both the Menubar and the Dock. There is also hotkey support for those users who want to use the mouse as little as possible.
From the moment you launch this application, it will start collecting all the information that you put in your clipboard. In other words, whenever you copy something, Clipboard History will keep a copy for later use. By default, 50 items will be saved, but you can increase this number from the Settings window. You can click the Menubar icon to see your clipboard history. Every item has a number next to it, which is its hotkey. You can easily paste that item by pressing the assigned hotkey. There is also a system-wide hotkey that can be used to call up a window with your history no matter what application you are currently working on.
Something I really like about this app is that it shows the type of the content that is in your history. Thus, if you copy an image, you will see a tag that reads "image", the same goes for text, HTML content, etc. Also, this app worked really well during my time with it. And I like that a sound is played when you copy something to your clipboard.
In short, Clipboard History works like a charm, it is very useful and at only $4.99 is also affordable.
v1.3 [Aug 16, 2011]
Version 1.3.1:
- Fix for the users that get a crash after updating to v1.3 (unresponsive app). Important: if you need to quit an unresponsive Clipboard History before updating, you can do it from the Activity Monitor.
- Fix for Clipboard History not working with MS Word (and probably other Office apps).
Version 1.3:
The BEST Clipboard application just got BETTER!!!
In this awesome version:
- BLACKLIST! Block and unblock Applications to prevent them from inserting items into your Clipboard History (e.g.: password generators).
- FAVORITES! Flag items you use over an over as favorites. They will not be erased from your clipboard. Use the new hotkey to bring them in a pop-up menu (default: cmd+alt+c).
- AVOID DUPLICATES! When you copy something, now you won't find it twice in your clipboard history.
- PASTE AS PLAIN TEXT SHORTCUT! Just press shift while pasting from the pop up menu.
- Extend your history to up to 500 ITEMS!
- Several bugfixes and *drastic* performance optimizations (lower memory usage, faster loading, faster scrolling).
