Thank you for trying the Beta of Extended Clipboard 2.
Extended Clipboard 2 is the successor of Extended Clipboard Classic a tool that was started
in 2002. As the development environment that was used to develop Extended Clipboard Classic
is now discontinued, I had to start over new. The result is Extended Clipboard 2.
Whats different?
Aside that ExtClip2 is a complete rewrite of the Extended Clipboard Classic there are some
changes in its basic functionality.
Clips are no more stored on the harddisk. They can be exported or imported but during
runtime they stay in the computers memory for faster access. An option to automatically
save them on shutdown and to automatically import them on startup may be implemented later.
There is currently no scripting language as nobody realy used ECSL in Extended Clipboard
Classic.
ExtClip2 is much faster than the Classic version. The FastPaste menu works lightning fast
and in many cases better than its predecessor. The pasted item stays active in the clipboard.
ExtClip2 does not position the FastPaste menu at the current caret position as many modern
applications start to implement the caret functionality themselves instead of using the
standard functionality. This would result in the FastPaste menu opening at the wrong position.
There is pretty much more, but I suggest you give it a try and find out yourself. :-)
The Extended Clipboard 2 is a complete rewrite of the successfull Extended Clipboard Classic.
The Extended Clipboard 2 is written in C# and requires the
.NET Runtime Framework (3.5 or newer).
