A Review : Clipboard Manager

Abstract

The most important characteristic of a clipboard manager is its ability to save time. Clipboard managers allow users to store a history of previously copied content such as text, files, Rigid and images—whereas the built in Windows Clipboard only allows for storage of one item at a time - thus allowing for speedy access of such content. This comes in especially handy when carrying out repetitive data entry tasks such as entering repeat formula as well as storing images in a database for further processing. Other uses include storing common sections of code (for programmers) and storing online form information. Some of us routinely carry out such repetitive tasks given our professions, habits or hobbies and the ability to cut down on the monotony of switching back and forth between desired content is a valuable asset. Users can choose exactly how many clips they want to be stored in the history. There is a choice of how many clips are stored by being made immediately available on the popup menu and, how many are stored out of sight but still remain in the program cache. This is useful, as not all of the clips need to be immediately available for pasting and can be adjusted based on the habits of users. Users can also make certain clips permanently available and store them in different groups. Basic cut and paste gets the job done, but if you are going for speed and efficiency, you will need a clipboard manger to keep your copy-full strong. Keeping all the most frequently used text snippets in the Windows clipboard does make sense.
