I wrote a Copy/Paste stack tool. Pressing ctrl+c adds the current selection onto the stack and ctrl+v pastes off of the stack. You can toggle between LIFO and FIFO.
It's been very helpful for our client-facing folks who have to copy a lot of user data.
- tolbish 6y agoThe is pretty cool and inherently useful. How do users see what's currently on the stack?
- BitwiseFool 6y agoIt's an inelegant solution, but the app uses a context icon in the taskbar and when you click on it a window appears that shows the stack in a table view. This is all being done using WinForms. I'm hoping to find a better implementation to be honest.
- jodrellblank 6y agoWindows 10 has that built in (search for "save multiple clipboard items" in the start menu), and third party ones have been available for at least 19 years (ArsClip - http://www.joejoesoft.com/vcms/97/ http://www.joejoesoft.com/vcms/97/ ) Surely they have also been available on mac and Linux for as long? Can it possibly have been a good investment to write your own?
- BitwiseFool 6y agoI had no idea this existed, thank you for sharing. As far as an investment of time goes, I just saw this as a challenge and I enjoyed working on it.
- kortex 6y agoI started using a copy paste with history (alfred on mac). Could never go back. It's such a massive workflow optimizer I can't believe the idea isn't more common. Function fixedness?
