Our Verdict
Many clipboard - enhancing applications take the kitchen cesspool attack , allowing you to copy and glue multiple file types . ClipListtakes the road of sticking to one matter and doing it as well as it can . ClipList is a simple and aboveboard utility that can capture multiple transcript or cut commands , and preserve them in a drop - down lean that ’s accessible through a menu bar item .
ClipList also has other functions that give it added value . It can take the subject of the clipboard and save it to your desktop as a RTF Indian file — much handier than a text clipping file . The other thing it does quite well is save sets of clipboard detail that you may load from files antecedently keep open from the menu . At first , I was n’t sure of the value of the characteristic . After having used it to paste the same text press cutting in to multiple text field on a vane - based database , I easy saw how much time it relieve me .
Installing ClipList , however , is less than idealistic . You have to manually copy both an lotion and a preference pane . The taste pane is only there for introduce the serial number ( and it require System Preferences to quit and re - launch in 32 - bit mode ) . Limit Point Software ’s Read Me states the adjustment will eventually be incorporated in to the program . And , it only does text . Whether that is salutary or forged is up to your penury to adjudicate .
If you need a clipboard expander that does it all , keep look . If , however , text is all you copy and glue , or if you have sets of school text you reuse often in various programs , then ClipList is definitely deserving a endeavour .
